[Desire General] green hoodlum:
my questions were specific to the ROM on the development page. i figured if i could have asked it there, people would know exactly what i'm talking about.

and i don't think we said the rule was not useful, just a tad bit annoying : p
[Desire General] green hoodlum:
sorry if i'm being pedantic, but just to clarify (i do want to install a new ROM with a partition) the steps would be:

1. do a full wipe (cache/partition)

2. partition SD

3. install new ROM

does that sound right?

and thanks for previous reply.
[Desire General] 123xdagsm:
you can use custom recovery ver3
[Desire General] green hoodlum:
anybody?

*eagerly awaiting a reply*
[Desire General] brandall:
You should make a nandroid backup as well as a copy of your SD card. Have you done this? If not, a quick search will give instructions on how to do it, to ensure you can return to where you are now if things don't go right with the new ROM for some reason...

Otherwise, yes. Your steps are correct! Good luck...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aerobic1:
I recently decided to update the look on my Evo and went with the MikFroyo v4.5 Rom. I was running Netarchy's Burnt Rom, and had the toastmod kernel. After updating the radios, as they suggested, I proceeded with flashing with the MikFroyo rom. The MikFroyo Rom comes with stock HTC #15 Kernel, which I just left alone until my wifi stopped working.

I read on a few threads that some people were flashing a different kernel and were able to fix wifi, so I tried a couple of different ones. I've listed the kernels I used below. Additionally, I updated profile in system updates, and it still didn't fix anything.

[KERNEL]

Stock HTC #15 Kernel (came with MikFroyo v4.5)

4.3.1 netarchy-toastmod-cfs-nohavs-nosbc-universal

4.3.4-cfs-havs-less-nosbc (Less Aggressive HAVS) - This kernel is currently on my phone.

I'm just grasping at straws at this point, and I have no idea what else to do. I love the Rom, but I need the wifi to work.

Does anyone know a kernel that is supposed to resolve the wifi issue?

Are there perhaps some file location changes that were made when the new Rom was installed?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEdge88:
You stated that you kept the HTC 15 until wifi stopped working. This infers that wifi was working with MikFroyo and then something happened. What mods did you make to your phone just before wifi stopped working?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aerobic1:
Hi, thanks for the reply. I meant to say I didn't start trying new kernels until I noticed the wifi wasnt working. The MikFroyo rom suggested updating the radios before flashing it, so I did.

The wifi problem surfaced after updating the radios to the current ones. I reverted the ROM back to Netarchy Burnt Droid 1.4.2 to see if it was the ROM that was causing the issue, but the wifi still can't scan for networks. I also always wipe the dalvik and cache before flashing.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Khilbron:
Which radio did you flash.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
I would suggest doing a full wipe, and then re-flashing the rom.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aerobic1:
I did the combo and the boot update found here. I don't know which piece effects the wifi though.

I also always wipe the dalvik and cache before flashing anything. Are you saying I need to wipe something else?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
I'm saying backup your rom and apps. Then do a full wipe, factory/data, cache, and your dalvik, then re-flash your rom. That should clear up your issues.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aerobic1:
Wooohooooo!!!! I wiped everything, and it's working PERRRRRRRFECTLY!!

Thanks a bunch teh roxxorz :D

[Defy General] stewi21:
Hey guys i did a bit of a google before deciding to ask here, is it possible on the defy to dual boot the stock 2.1 ROM (from phone memory) and a custom 2.2 ROM (from SD card). I want to do this so if i stuff anything up in theory i can just remove the SD and have my stock phone back again.

PS i think i have the Asia Version, and root.
[Defy General] ABC_Universal:
I don't think so. Actually it is not trivial just moving between 2.1 and 2.2 in defy due to the locked bootloader, though apparently cracked lately.
[Defy General] stewi21:
aw kay bummer.. thanks anyway :)

Hello,

I have just tried 2.2 RLS 5 on my evo, it is wonderful!

I've been trying to work the footprints.apk and even when it was copied to sys/app and tried to install, it kept saying "application not installed". any idea? I've tried to reboot and all...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] BKzJustO:
Okay I made sure that I search all over Google and on forums before posting this problem. My SGS4G will not stay on vibrate always. I have confirmed that the problem is ADW Launcher Ex. (paid version). I unistalled launcher and vibrate function worked fine but I love the customization on the launcher and would like to know if there's a fix before I delete it all together. Here's the difficult part. When I go to settings and change to vibrate always then it vibrates a few times with messages then automatically switches back to vibrate "Only in silent mode". Sometimes my calls won't even ring. Please help. This is extremely frustrating. Is there a fix or at least another app that is just as good or better than ADW Launcher Ex for UI customization.

Thanks

I bricked my phone while applying LagFix...Rooted my Galaxy i5801 using z4root..that went well

The start up screen is coming again and again...Can anyone help me...Help Fast..Screwed!!!

Now what to do??

Use ODIN???Which firmware to use...I am from India...Someone help!! Please provide all the links
[Galaxy 3 General] starof:
Flash your phone using ODIN.

You can get your firmware from samfirmware.com You will need to register with them.

It's upto you what firmware to use, maybe try	I5801ZFJPE Thats a Asia firmware, or I5800XXJPM Thats Europe

All the flash programs are on samfirmware.com

Hope this helps
[Galaxy 3 General] tahasumra:
After Rooting the warranty of the phone is void...right??

And I downloaded the ZFJPE firmware but I think it doesnot contain all the files needed by ODIN...as in I couldn't find the PHONE image...Need help in this

And Can I use the europe firmware in India???
[Galaxy 3 General] starof:
Yes your warranty will be void.

follow this link for flashing http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=778880

Goto youtube and look for rudolf895 videos. He has some good ones for flashing

Maybe best just flashing the India firmware.
[Galaxy 3 General] ron_gangte:
I recommend you to flash the I5801DDJG6 from samfirmware..

That's the one that our fones came with.. It will work for sure!! :-)

..and the file has to be loaded in "One Package" after checking the "One Package" Option.. :-)

..you will also have to load the OPS file provided by Samfirmware..

That's about it!! :-)

Nothing to worry about!! :-)

Amd by the way.. That is NOT a brick.. It's a semi-brick!! :-D

..and your warranty won't be void in case if you totally brick your fone!! :-) ..I got mine fixed after having bricked my fone.. Didn't have to spend a dime!! :-)

But, trust me.. You don't wanna brick your fone!! :-) plus, the Service Center kept my fone with 'em for over 3 weeks!! X-(

" Amd by the way.. That is NOT a brick.. It's a semi-brick!! :-D "

- Love this comment by ron_gangte.

And (Let me exhilirate ) ..YYYIIIIIPPPPPPPEEEEEEEE.........I flashed it successfully..using DDJG6.....lost all data :( but still :D

And 1 question...Is my phone still rooted?? After Flashing also???

Since i successfully Flashed it ...thinking about flashing with different firmware...but this time want to be foolproof.....

Any recommendations on firmware (Provide Links too)

Thanks alot u Guys!!!
[Galaxy 3 General] ron_gangte:
Haha..

Good to know that I could help!! :-)

..and No, your fone is still not rooted after the reflash.. If you want it rooted, you will have to root it again.. :-)

..and if you want to flash to Froyos now, first flash I5800XXJP8.. Then you'll be able to flash other ROMs like JPM with ease..

Or you can flash any other I5801 ROMs directly, I guess..

Can't provide the links since I am on my fone.. Search for those ROMs on samfirmware.com..

If you want a Custom ROM.. Try Lestatious!! :-)

[Galaxy 3 General] tahasumra:
In the settings -> About Phone -> Kernel Version it shows

2.6.29

root@SE-S604#2

What root stands here for If my phone is not Rooted?

And about Lestatious..searched it ..There are a lot of versions available so which version is suited for our Galaxy??? I suppose you are using Lestatious on the same phone...can u help me in that too???

And is the method of flashing same as the one i did for DDJG6??
[Galaxy 3 General] ron_gangte:
For rooting DDJG6.. There is a file somewhere.. Which I don't remember..

But I guess.. You'd prefer to have Froyo Custom ROMs, right??

You can find Lestatious in the Development Section of our Galaxy 3 forum..

For using that, you'll first have to flash

I5800XXJP8 -> I5800XXJPF/JPM -> Lestatious 1.2.6

And then update to 1.4.5..

And the flashing method is the same..

Except for updating to 1.4.5.. For that you have to run "Update-ROM.bat" provided in the thread and follow the instructions..!! :-)

Not at all difficult, only time-consuming!! :-/

[Galaxy 3 General] tahasumra:
Yeah you are right I want FROYO Roms....and i found Lestatious in the section....Still Confused but dont wana irritate you by asking more questions!!

"For using that, you'll first have to flash

I5800XXJP8 -> I5800XXJPF/JPM -> Lestatious 1.2.6 "

Does this means that I have to flash my phone 3 times????
[Galaxy 3 General] ronhoover88:
No you dont have to...you can just flash from DDJG6>lestatious 1.2.6 and then use the update.bat file for 1.4.5

For flashing from DDJG6 to lestatious 1.2.6 build use odin and for 1.4.5 use the update rom.bat file
[Galaxy 3 General] tahasumra:
Thnx for clearing this..

But I am unable to get "lestatious 1.2.6" ROM...in the development section also theres only 1.4.5 version.....can you provide the exact link to 1.2.6 or correct me if i am wrong somewhere in understanding!!!

Thanks
[Galaxy 3 General] tahasumra:
And also which one will be better

Lestatious or i5801ZFJPE which is 2.2...
[Galaxy 3 General] ronhoover88:
You can find lestatious 1.2.6 on his thread only...you'll have to look for it in the second post...

Regarding lestatious or JPE...it depends if you want a custom rom(lestatious) or stock rom (JPE)

Lestatious is better! :-)

..both are 2.2! :-)

Lestatious v2.0 (Current Build: 1.2.6) - Base ROM JPM - Will Wipe Your Phone!

but base rom given should be JPM...and mine is DDJG6...It wont create any problem na???
[Galaxy 3 General] sheron:
i haven't used lestatious, i myself prefer kyrillos's ROM (another custom rom)

download the file to check if u can flash directly from ur current rom

if the file u downloaded has multiple parts like csc (or)pda (or) Phone then u must flash first using the jpf firmware from samfirmware.com

if the file is a single file with any other name than specified above then u can flash directly from any rom
[Galaxy 3 General] stubborn_d0nkey:
dont flash the bootloader and nothing serious can happen. Custom roms dont have it, some stock roms do some dont. check before. if its multiple package even if you get it you dont have to flash it (and you shouldt) but if its one package you have to check
[Galaxy 3 General] tahasumra:
well the file of lestatious i downloaded is a single .tar file

LestatiousROMv2.0(1.2.6.BUILD)

which has init the following contents

cache , datafs , factoryfs -> all this .rfs

modem.bin

zImage

Now from DDJG6 if I flash my piece clicking ONE PACKAGE in ODIN using the above .tar, will it go smoothly or will give me headache???

And also I should use the same OPS file which I used previously for flashing with DDJG6?
[Galaxy 3 General] stubborn_d0nkey:
that i cant tell you, i can tell you that it doesn't have bootloader in it which means that the bootloader cant get messed up.

I'm pretty sure Lestat has instructions, follow them and you will get his rom (eventually :P)
[Galaxy 3 General] ron_gangte:
Yea.. Use the same OPS file you used earlier..

The tar file doesn't contain the bootloader, therefore it is safe..

You can flash it with One Package like you did before.

The base ROM of the Custom ROM is JPM.. That doesn't mean you should have JPM.. It will probably work if you flash from DDJG6.. But I'd recommend you first get to a Froyo to make it easier..

Well.. Flashing the Custom ROM should not give you a headache if you follow the instructions given in Lestat's thread.. :-)

It goes smooth but it takes a while to boot...wait till you get to pass on odin
[Galaxy 3 General] tahasumra:
OK...I think the last question before I give this a Try....the ODIN part i understood...confident enough..

But the update part...what exactly is the procedure??

Coz using the same method while applying LAGFIX on my form i made it 'SEMI-BRICK'..so bit afraid of update part...

Some irritatinq queries :-

Should the phone be turned ON before running update.bat file or after??

At the time of connecting USB the phone should be ON or OFF??

First run .bat or first connect phone??

How many times the phone will restart??

Will the startup screen blink again and again as it happened previously with me??

And I have lot off stupid questions like above which will make you feel like slapping me!! :)

But if someone can provide complete steps inside out it will be grateful!! :D
[Galaxy 3 General] ronhoover88:
Your phone should be on...and you should connect your phone and then click update rom.bat...and choose whatever stuff by following the on screen instructions
[Galaxy 3 General] ron_gangte:
Follow the below steps:

1. Make sure USB Debugging is ON.

2. Connect your phone to the PC/Laptop while the phone is ON.

3. Now, run the .bat file provided.

4. Select the desired options.

5. After you select all the desired options, the phone will restart ONCE.

PS: The first Boot will take quite a long time.. So be patient!! :-)

Nah.. Updating is optional..

But well.. You get added features with the update and a better theme too.. It's upto you to decide though..

I'm curious, with USB hosting how possible is it that someone will be able to create a driver to get an Xbox 360 controller working on the Xoom? I'm thinking a wired controller of course, but if one could get the PC wireless receiver working as well, that would be pretty cool too.

I found this ROM for the Elocity A7 in which the developer seems to have gotten it all working pretty well, including the wireless receiver. I would absolutely LOVE to play some emulators with the Xbox 360 controller!

So, what do you guys think, doable? :D

*Update (see post 17): Member thegeektern needs some help testing a kernel he's working on to get this working. He doesn't have the host USB cable or the wired controller yet. I'll be ordering the two shortly and will help if nobody else has already by the time they arrive.
[Xoom General] sleeplessninja:
If the interface is there, USB controllers, its doable. Drivers are a pain in the butt. At least for me. But I would rather focus on getting something like a mouse working first.

If they got the USB controller to work, maybe the devs could get the USB dongle to work as well:

Yeah, I'm guessing once somebody gets just the regular wired controller working, getting the wireless receiver working as well wouldn't be that difficult. I'm not that bothered about that though. I'm not going to be far enough away to need wireless and if I have to plug the receiver in any way that's not much different than just plugging the controller in.

Imagine this though. At a hotel, hook the Xoom/other android tablet into the TV through HDMI and then whip out your xbox 360 wireless controller and play some n64 games or something in bed. YES PLEASE.

[Xoom General] techs1200:
I have the datel and it works flawlessly with the xoom. Worth every penny!
[Xoom General] Facegarden:
FYI I have the wireless receiver and it draws a lot of power from the USB port - more than the allotted 500ma - and it got some notoriety for causing problems on systems that were not capable of providing the extra power. On my system, for example, it knocked out the audio when plugging it in, because the audio was actually USB internally.

So it may not be so great on a Xoom.

However, I agree that it would be truly awesome to get at least wired controllers working!
[Xoom General] jeston:
Could this problem be fixed using a powered USB hub, I wonder? Just more things to plug in, of course. I really would like to see at least the wired controller working, though!
