Hello Pradeep,
I own a GT-i9001 XXKG1(Samsung Galaxy S Plus) which is on FW2.3.3 and kernel 2.6.35.7-perfroot@DELL152#1.
I understood the only difference with the i9000 would be a higher CPU speed on the S plus.
Is this custom ROM also suitable for this device?
gr Gerard
yes, you can update the same again

Mine stuck at “Semaphore kernel” boot logo…help please?
just reboot the device, it will be fixed

It is a wonderful and stable update.
After this i also updated to XYLON mod 4.2.2 which eats us too much of battery(had to recharge my phone battery 5 times a day)
Finally rolled back to the F4K custom mod 4.0.4 which is a very good one.
Waiting for a stable Jelly bean update for I9000.
If any stable one please provide a link for the same.
Thanking in advance.
only bugs i found in this F4K update is in the tethering and we cant use a wonderful feature i.e. WI-FI direct.
