sir gumagana ba to sa Custom ROM ung gamit ko kasi ung kay pulak.. nakasulat kasi sa link na nabigay mo e stock rom..

kung base sa stock ICS yung custom ROM na gamit mo, then SDfy (by wizwin) should work..

basta pag mag-test/flash ka ng kung anuman.. make sure lang na may NANDroid backup ka pang rollback and stock FTF kung kailangan mo buhayin uli phone mo (from bootloop or softbrick)
