AndyX ROM

This is odd... I performed a complete wipe and I tried to select Swype and Swiftkey X. For some reason it won't let me change keyboard types... Is anyone else having similar issues? When I select Swype or Swiftkey X there's a check-mark. When I press back and check it again it's unchecked...

I haven't had that issue I'm afraid. I check the box for Swiftkey to enable it and then select it as default. What version are you running?
 
aha! I finally got the download to work after hours of trying lol. 7.1 is brilliant!!! Haven't had a single issue yet. Flawless!

Lucky you! I couldn't get it to work last night. Bloody uploaded.to...more like notuploaded.to
 
Not as far as I've seen. But that keyboard is horrible anyway. I suggest trying Swype or Swiftkey from the Play Store.
 
Samsung stock apps if you don't use them. I'm really not versed when it comes to freezing apps. There's a good guide on it here.

Installed 7.1 on Sunday with a terrible hangover, really liking it, battery life is excellent and no issues with anything so far. The X/Y keyboard issue is because it's a European version of ICS. Apparently that key layout is used in quite a few countries in Europe. I'm just using the Android keyboard which has everything in the right place :)
 
Hi all - after getting the official ICS update with horrific Touchwiz on top, I'm dying to use Andyx 7.1. However, none of the "uploaded.to" links seem to work here in North America. Can anyone upload the file to a mirror, or put up a link for the same? Would be mucho appreciated :)
Thanks!
 
Yes a couple of people would probably appreciate that *coughmecough*

Perhaps some kind individual who managed to download it without it stopping at 177mb and wasting my downloads could upload it to a dropbox account and link us?
 
Update on my AndyX Rom experience: I'm being told that I'm sending messages twice to people. Is anyone else experiencing this? I only press send once but it sends twice? Maybe it'll be fixed in 7.1.
 
Here you guys go. I wanted to use mediafire, but they cap at 200mb.

Any problems, let me know.

Also in exchange ^_^ , from my other thread on "scrolling problem", I want to revert back to Gingerbread. Went to [ROM+Guide]Official i9100 Firmwares KL1/2/3/LA2,4/LB2,LPE/Q/7 Download - xda-developers and this is the firmware that I want :

XXKI3

Firmware info
PDA:XXKI3
PHONE: XXKI3
Date: 15/09/2011
Android 2.3.5


XEO (Poland): http://www.multiupload.com/XTRG43JVEG

XXKI3 Stock Kernel: http://www.multiupload.com/6XT83N1LLN
Password: intratech@XDA


However as you guys can see, it's uploaded on multiupload.com and it's been closed I guess. Can you guys provide a link or a contact person or anything where I can download this firmware? Would much appreciate it.

Also, since I am new to flashing back to previous iterations of Android, is it the same procedure as flashing to a new firmware? I read that you have to flash the stock kernel first, then reboot, then flash the firmware. Anybody can help me with this?

Funny story, I just got the download to work and it finished an hour ago! But I'm sure some people appreciate it and I'll still help.

I suggest fullwipe, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe battery stats, repeat, then install a custom GB rom like CheckROM v6. Then you don't have to worry about stock kernels!

Kie, I had the same issue when I installed 7.1, really odd. I don't use the stock messaging app either I am a GOSms kind of person so not sure why it is doing this.

And I'm on Handcent. I'll install 7.1 asap and test it to see if fixed :D
 
I was on 7.1 so not sure if it was just a fault with the ROM itself, obviously feedback your findings in case it was a problem with GOSms and ICS.

Which Launcher are you using, I was using Apex as the TwLauncher didn't work, just had a black screen, did you have the same problem?
 
Thanks so much! After multiple flashes, 7.1 is now working like a charm.

In the course of extensive googling, I came across a package that would restore the Andyx battery icon and notification/status bar back to stock, but can't seem to find it anymore (it was on some spanish/south american blog). Anyone have a clue?

Also, @hippityhop, I had to revert to 2.3.4 after 2.3.6 because the latter decimated my battery. I have the GSII firmware - XXKG1. As I said, it's 2.3.4, but works great and has all the files you need. When I downgraded, I had to flash the modem and CMS fields in Odin instead of just PDA, but it worked fine. Didn't have to do any wipes, but you might need to if you're going down from ICS.

If you want to try that out, let me know and I'll upload it for you.
