How to install Android ICS Ice Cream Sandwich on Samsung Galaxy S.



Samsung has announced its Galaxy S phone no update to give to Android Ice Cream Sandwich ICS 4. Indicates that one reason is that the ROM would not fit on the memory of the device. This is because Samsung's own bloatware, the TouchWiz skin / shell wants to deliver. TouchWiz course looks nice and is nice and user helemaaal but not necessary. After having some issues "gechopt" including the boot animation (eye candy and eye candy and no old or new) have the code gurus ICS works fine as far as the i9000. It is of course a custom ROM which is still working hard to fix as many bugs but it's the real Android 4.0.3 so we can not leave it in the hope that Samsung spent some time on a slightly older machine which is still used by many people.



Fortunately, there are a lot of enthusiasts who develop .. Thus one has invented the boat animation omit so to create space. Brilliant course and a little strange that Samsung itself has apparently not thought



This is the alpha release canddate 7 for the SGS I9000 (not I9000b)



This is an alpha release (or the 7th already) which means that this ROM is not fully functional. Ohwzo assumes no responsibility for what the user (you / you so) being loaded. Many have successfully completed this tutorial and follow it exactly this is the chance of a brick is very small.




What we need:

2. Go to Security (security)
3. Click "SIM card lock, and turn it off.

5. Navigate to "Yes - install ICS_4.0.3_r1-RC1-i9000-reupload.zip"

The ROM is now flashed. Boot your phone in a blue recovery menu? Repeat the steps above it. Now we need to flash the kernel:

2. Choose again "choose zip from sdcard"

4. Select "FuguModICSRC1_GT-I9000_voodoo-color.zip"

6. Select FuguModICS_GT-I9000_update.zip 'and then Yes to install.

Now select "reboot system now". Startup may take time so give it some time. During the first start the installation completed.

OK, the important:

Suppose Wifi and create or link an existing gmail account to download from Market.
Download "Script Manager" and install this app. (Free of charge)

While using the 2G network verbuikt less power, we also 3G capabilities and therefore we must install the following fix.

Thanks to ward rake. To make room, we remove the boot animation.

1. Go back to recovery and flash enable3gv3.zip same way as the ROM.

After the 3G fix, we also fix for the superuser root access.

1. Flash 'Superuser-3.0.7-EFGH-signed.zip "in the same way as previous files.
