[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EEdaesung:
I'm curious as to what all the features that developers change or add actually are doing to your phone. But, since I'm new to this I don't know the resources where I can learn what the terminology means.

For example:

[Kernel][Sense] Adrynalyne's 2.6.32.21 [Latest Version 1.8] [Updated 3-29-2011]'s kernel he has the features:

Latest Version is 1.8

-Fixed 2D rendering, improved quadrant

-1.8--removed gps+ patch because it sucked ass

OldLatest Version is 1.7

-Changed up higher end voltages

OldLatest Version is 1.6 (This does not mean overclocked to 1.6 people )

Includes:

-undervolt

-swap

-neon and cortex opt

-rndin-gpu+ patch

-conservative, interactive and smartass govenors.

-standard slots no OC

-Changed up higher end voltages

-Powersave govenor added

-Fixed 2D rendering, improved quadrant

What does all this stuff mean? For a non-developer like myself it may not mean much, but that doesn't change my curiosity on inner workings of what's going on.

If there is a comprehensive guide that someone can point me to... Or just answer the question of what I'm actually doing to my phone.

instead of giving you the "fish" im going to teach you how to "fish" ;)

try googling this "xda swap" OR "xda gpu+" or what ever you want

thats how most of us have been doing it

most of us are self taught and when you are self taught you are generally more knowledgeable

it too much work for us to explain evey little detail you know :rolleyes:

so good luck to hope you can find some answers

I really can't get this program to work. I followed the wiki to the T. Neither of the 3 options work. The only thing i notice that is different is the 3 option

If you get a FAILED error after it writes "param.lfs", try this method:

1. Reboot the phone and reset Odin

2. Load the pit file and place the tar in the Phone section

3. Start the recovery

4. The process will hang while writing "factoryfs.rfs"

5. Reboot the phone and reset Odin

^^ I never get factoryfs.rfs just the same old param.lfs error

I came from EB13 & did one click root clockwork 3.0.0.5/6. After i tried to boot into recovery it coverted everything into EXT4 when the phone did not work after that i tried to use Odin to flash back to EB13. I was able to apply syndicateROM through clockwork but it still does not turn on. When i try to turn on my device I don't get the Samsung boot logo i get 2 icons. Left icon is a phone right icon is a computer...really don't know what else to do. Appreciate any help
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musclehead84:
Try using Odin without the pit file and put the tar in the PDA section. If that doesn't work try redownloading the tar file again. It might have been a bad download.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brd912:
Ok so I've noticed a few things. 2.1 stock ran better than stock 2.2 on my phone. So I'm wondering if there are any 2.1 custom roms anywhere? Just to test,I'm running continuum v4. Its great but I've tweaked so much that I feel I need to take all precautions and charge 100% and flash back to stock and the charge 100% before flashing another rom. Any advice?

define "ran better"
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jemack:
You are kidding, right?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
no.. seriously noone knows what you consider better..

battery? speed? features? lag? modem speed? call quality?

oh snap!

how long did you run stock before upgrading?

how long have you been using 2.2?

have you tried any other roms than the 1 you are using now?

are you running antivirus? or task managers with 2.2? (LOL that would do it.) WASTE!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brd912:
Ok I ran 2.1 stick for about 3 weeks and 2.2 stock for about 2 weeks. No antivirus,no lookout or app killer. The roms here run much better,I was speaking as far as stock goes. The thing is that I have tweaked and feel like I've flashed "dirt" so many times (with less than 50% battery every time and never return rom stock) and I fee like its slowly bogging down. As far as 2.1 vs 2.2 stock,I felt like 2.1 multitasked quicker,and easier. And it did everything I wanted with no lag. 2.2 wasn't bad but waking the phone up always took a second to warm up and get going and would lag if I ran Facebook,Gmail,browser and messaging at the same time. I know that's alot but 2.1 stock,handled it. For me anyways. Buy different users get different results I reckon

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Just the usual, back up, flash to stock, master clear, charge battery to 100 re download the rom to make sure your copy didn't get corrupted somehow, once you are ready to flash, In cwm wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, go into advanced and wipe dalvik cache, then flash rom. That is the cleanest flash possible.q
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
way to over complicate!

tibu backup

flash new rom in CWM (

all good roms do a wipe NOW, going to stock is pointless

!)

tibu restore!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
I agree its way over complicated, I dont do it that way myself, he wanted the way to get the "cleanest flash" and the way you mentioned always comes with the disclaimer that if you have problems go back to stock. Usually a simple wipe or reflash would fix the problem but a complicated process like that gives a placebo effect also
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1tontomato:
I too just wipe cache partition and dalvik cache and flash over, but if you want just a little more super duper clean I go into mounts and storage and wipe every thing but the boot and sd. When I do the verbage actually says formatting not wipe. Who knows it, it could just be a placebo but I haven't had any problems yet.

will have to say,i tried clearing cache,going into advanced in recovery and formatting things. but after flashing back to stock and charging battery before doing anything,seemed to help. im back on continuum and its running better than i thought it was when i first flashed it..and,after playing with 2.1 stock today before rooting/flashing rom,i not withdraw my comment about it running better than 2.2 lol. i dont know what it was when i first got it but it seemed to run better.oh well,im satisfied

I noticed later on that my computer would no longer recognize my device which is a big problem so I did a factory reset but that didn't help at all so I decided to reflash to stock. Problem is now my phone keeps flashing the i9000m splash screen over and over. I'm flashing with I9000UGJK3.tar which is stock 2.2, ive tried repartitioning since I did have the lag fix using the s1_odin_20100512.pit file and im still stuck on this damn screen.

If you have root access on your phone, you can download a file manager that can access your phones root files, such as Root Explorer. With your file manager you go into /data and find your .apk and copy the file and paste it on your SD card and from there to your computer. Hope that's useful information to you.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TheNewGuy:
I think something like this should work even if the phone is not rooted.

enter at terminal on phone:

mkdir /sdcard/sysapps

cp /system/app /sdcard/sysapps

mkdir /sdcard/dataapp

cp /data/app /sdcard/dataapp

these should just copy the whole app folder to sdcard. I don't think it needs to be rooted because you are only reading the system, not writing to it.

this worked for me in the past to pull the build. Prop from the system of an unrooted phone.

if those don't work try this one

cp /system/app/*. apk /sdcard/sysapps
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dastin1015:
cp /data/app doesn't work for non-rooted or rooted.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Sybregunne:
Try app monster backup everything that isn't protected. Then open sdcard/appmonster/backups/ copy all the apks from there.

If ur rooted cp /systems/apps/* should do the trick. Although another way would be to tar /system/apps/ to sdcard i use * coz i think those odex files are important too right?

You can download a full ROM or whichever equivalent and copy and paste it to root of your phone, then run bootloader (power + volume up) and select recovery option, choose that ROM file to install.

Your phone will be unrooted though.

Hmm like i said i used odin to flash a stock rom so that should be the same as flashing via recovery .. IT removes cwm but doesn't restore original recovery ..also still haven't found a full gri54.img for fastboot in the forum. .so odin is the only way to flash stock

That Android with exclamation mark, is the 'stock recovery' you are looking for.
