Ok .. and the best custom rom is? I just wanna know, for now i have giopro 1.2.. and i wanna incress battery life, and maybe to not have "lag".
Btw HAPPY NEW YEAR!

i give-up official and "custom" roms because of unlock lag.
I use now Cyanogenmod 7.2rc1 and it's way better tan stock rom. (cm7.1rc3 works seamlessly well, once you put the correct patches )

    Common Issues and possible solutions / tips and tricks

    Common Issues and possible solutions / tips and trick

    shutdown/freeze randomly in your pocket

    . Change your Wifi sleep policy to Never, put a small paper behind the battery some times battery gets loose , if problem stays fectory reset and install latest firmware and fectory reset yet again ..

    rooted phone and upgragde gingerbread,but still having problem about bootanimated

    Install Root explorer and you need to select "remount as r/w".

    command on adb shell to replac framework-res.apk?
    #mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

    then:
    cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/

    #reboot (bootloop posibility if framework doesnt match)

    Poor Battery Life
    Install latest firmware , turn of wifi when not using , try to charge with wall Charge some times data cable don't charge the properly, And don't forget to clean Ram after using apps , it helps to reduce load on device.

    Compass doesn't work anymore
    Its a bug , there is no solution availble yet , as soon something comes out i'll post here.​

    Is there a possibility to overclock samsung galaxy Gio
    Nop overclocking isn't working with gio yet.

    What is the code for fectory reset
    Put your phone in recovery mode (By holding home button+Power button) and select fectory reset option from there or if your phone is on use this code
    *2767*3855# Fectory reset will remove all your data from the phone, apps , gallery , contacts and messages be sure to make a backupHow to check your firmware version
    *#1234# OR Goto setting<About<Scroll down and check
    How to put Gio to downloading mode to flash a firmware by ODIN
    shut down your phone , hold home button+power button+volume down button altoghether.

    How to Restart your phone (without turn on and off)
    Volume down + Volume up + Power button hold untill phone goes off it will turn back again itself.. Or use adb , or terminal emulater , type su then type reboot
    How to Remove boot up sound??
    Delete file /system/etc/poweron.ogg using root explorer.

    What is a2sd darktremor and why should i install it ???
    a2sd darktremor let you install your all apps on sd card , so in this way internal memory stays empty and phone perform better than stock rom...

    I want to Flash my phone , What should i do after and before???
    you always have to fectory reset before and after flashing , when you done flashing you need to root(most of custom roms are already rooted so skip to next step) now you have to enable (a2sd daktremor if its not enabled in a custom rom you have to do it manually) . thats it , now you can start restoring your data , and install apps ...
