[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Lunchbox115:
Hi all,

I had Darky 9.5 and it was a great and fast ROM.

Today I wanted to install the new v10 RC3. I was able install the stock JVK without any problems but I can't get into recovery mode (download mode is no problem).

With the app 'Root Check' (downloaded from the market) I checked root access - but I don't have any?!

How do I get root rights? I looked around here in XDA-forum and read that I have to flash CF-Root kernel first as PDA. I can do this without any problems but than my Galaxy doesn't boot (I just see the 'Galaxy S I9000...'-screen).

Pls help me, I want to root my phone like with the 2.2.1-version + Darky's 9.5 extreme. I want to use Darky's 10 RC3 then...

Big thanks,

LB
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] [Ramad]:
It's all in the first post, and I believe that Darkyy and her team do write clearly that you need to install the firmware which includes bootloaders.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ashatron:
Cheers mate :)

That's the conclusion I've come to, not touched task manager, I occasionally check it just for free memory info.

But it runs so smooth! Had darky 9.5 before which was great, but this is a pretty huge improvement.

Full charge at 7am yesterday, heavy use, a couple hours browsing, lots of photos, played some games, outside in gorgeous sun all day (screen brightness high), and had 20% left by 8pm.

Awesome :) thanks for reply dude!

Thank you very much! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jellygoos:
Just to make sure...

... I don't get anything wrong. This is my first attempt to flash anything, so I just want to make sure I got everything right for flashing to JVK 2.3.3!

1. I checked that both 3-button combos work on my phone (sgs i9000 2.2.1 Froyo JPY) --> didn't need a fix or anything for that

2. I downloaded Odin and the firmware files WITH bootloaders, since I'm still on Froyo bootloaders. Next thing would be loading the files into ODIN and flashing. I don't think I want to re-partition so I leave the .Pit file as it is.

3. If I want to have the fresh stock-firmware rooted, I need to flash the Kernel using the Odin version of FuguRoot and flash the Kernel file that is provided at the first post in this thread?

I am not quite sure if I got the last step right. Do I have to flash a kernel independently from the firmware (PDA etc.?). Have been reading a lot the last days, but no answer to this question yet.

Thanks in advance for your advice!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jimmy080705:
Are people able to play ogg files? Mine says unsupported file type
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jbdroid:
Uhmmm I think you missed something in step 2. I am not sure though but I think since this is your first time to flash, you have to add a pit and check repartition. :):)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] [Ramad]:
All steps looks good, Kernel flashing using Odin is normally as PDA only, no pit and no re-partition, no matter which Kernel you want to flash. Flash FuguRoot as PDA only to root, disconnect when the device gets to charging mode, change to the extracted stock Kernel and flash again as PDA only.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jbdroid:
There you go, coming from the expert. Ignore my post now :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jellygoos:
Thanks very much for the swift reply! So that's what I thought, I don't need to flash any new .pit file right?

Would you recommend a backup beforehand using Titanium for example?

Would you recommend flashing a hacked/rooted kernel instead of the original one, or is that one rooted anyway?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] [Ramad]:
You were right in your post regarding re-partition, but re-partition is not always needed...jellygoos wants to flash without re-partition, that works too. :)

You can use Titanium to backup applications, but you

must

only restore /data applications when restoring, restoring /system applications will lead to boot problems and force-closes, beside that, there is no point in restoring /system applications on a new firmware.

Recommending a hacked Kernel against other hacked Kernels is out of question, I will not promote any Kernel against others, it depends on user taste and demand. Sorry :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jbdroid:
Is that so? I would like to understand more, oh I read your post about pit files before, what is the default pit and repartition size on a brand new SGS?

If I had known this before, I shouldn't have repartitioned my device last year when I first time flashed a ROM...

Thanks Ramad!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] [Ramad]:
Consider re-partitioning as re-format, 512.pit(as far as I know) is the standard one that is used on Samsung devices, 803.pit and 513.pit is used where more space on /system is needed if 512.pit is not enough(I have only seen this on DXJPE with 513.pit). So far, for regular and stock firmwares, 512.pit should do the job.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jbdroid:
Got it! Now I am better equipped to handle my device. Thanks again ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jellygoos:
Thanks again for the clarification! This helps a lot!

Regarding backup: If I understood everything correctly the firmware upgrade via Odin will NOT overwrite my Apps and Data (Multimedia) but leave those untouched (apart of some apps might not work properly with 2.3.3 yet). If that's the case, I'm ready to go :-)!

[Q] Why is battery running down so quick...

Thats strange, suddenly my battery today has depleted quite rapidly. It was really good recently.

Particularly by the 'Android OS', even more so than the display. Anyone explain why this is? i used my camera for a short while, but not for longer than 15 minutes.

Took it off charge about 10 this morning.

Battery info -

IMAGE - MORE DETAILED BATTERY GRAPH

the graph image shows a steady decline, but it seems a lot quicker than previous days, strange.

I have Juice Defender on all the time and have screen filter on most of the time.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mariotme:
Guys you all got Bluetooth running okay?

anyone getting an abrupt stop when scrolling using the default android browser?

Not sure if its the browser or the rom. Have installed the browser which allows more than 4 tabs.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
I thought this was to do with an issue between JVK and screen filter?? Someone mentioned that activating screen filter absolutely slaughters ur battery on JVK??

Early in this thread someone mentioned that they tested it and it was due to screen filter, and it amped up the android OS, thus resulting in what this user has posted in his screenshot?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xchasa:
1 day. 14h. Moderate to heavy use.

Phone and battery used every day for nearly a year.

This rom stock is definitely the best to date for me. Had now for 2 weeks and no probs for me here.

"Official" better have some big changes for me to upgrade.

I now don't even care when it comes out.

Very happy.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ryusaki_16:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Auzy:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jbdroid:
Nope. I do not have Screen Filter app but really, sometimes Android OS suddenly gets hungry. I do not mind now though, coz after my battery gets empty, I just charge it while it is off. Then when it is full and turn on my phone, Android OS is back to normal. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] amerm3:
first i want to thank all forum members and moderators for they nice topics and advices.

thanks again :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ingramz:
I am bringing up this issue again in order to gather some information. (as many were aware of this issue, but haven't got any other infos on this)

This is Gingerbread Launcher while using JVK and the icon quality is horrible. In JV1 there were no issues with that.

I actually did write su with both commands and it doesent work... thats what i been saying i am not a noob

C:\tools>adb shell

busybox mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system

busybox mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system

Permission denied

$ busybox mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system

mount: permission denied (are you root?)

$

... i just didnt copy the whole screen before

What am i doing wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Hoods:
Well just flashed it with pit, repartion and bootloaders a couple of hours ago. Been playing with it since then and i don't see any major problems. Auto-rotate is working and GPS is fine. Just rooted with CF-Root. My thanks go to Ramad and Chainfire on this one.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] [Ramad]:
I'm flashing JVK again to see what is wrong, will report back in a few min.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Chainfire:
If you receive root, the $ changes into #. Did you look at your screen if you get the SuperUser prompt and click accept ?

Either way, you should probably not be doing this from a running device anyways. Reboot into CWM and go on from there. I'm not sure what you're trying to do with modifying /system, but after rebooting into CWM, try this (don't copy/paste, read it):

C:> adb wait-for-device
C:> adb shell
$ rootsh
# mount /system

ADB wait-for-device waits until device is ready. Because of workaround to security setting it may take a bit for ADB to be available when in recovery. Then do adb shell. When you get shell use rootsh to get root (su doesn't work in recovery), mount /system mounts the /system folder as read-write (shortcut). Then you can do what you want. /sdcard is always mounted, but this is internal sd card, not external.

unrelated even when copying $omator's stuff manually, the resulting file is much smaller than the original, and though I do get percentage battery icon, no CRT screen off.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] $omator:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ra5849:
I have found a problem, for my big one.

The GPS is deactivated on having blocked the screen....

For example:

I open MAPS, and allow that it should take satellites. The icon of the GPS stops blinking and I am positioned. Without touching anything more, I block the terminal with the button of power.

Already it does not have GPS, if I unblock the terminal, before "traversing" the screen already I see as the icon it is blinking. I unblock it and MAPS has lost the position and the GPS searches again. If I leave it it returns to find again satellites. In addition if I it leave time blocked to the "awakening" the telephone already it does not take any more satellites.

I have proved this with maps, navigator and for me the origin of my problem, Endomondo.

This seems that it is an even good news, when I block the terminal the GPS is deactivated, does not spend battery... But when you it need ignition it is very bad, for example tracking on having run or on having gone in bicycle...

Does it happen to you also? Can someone solve it like?

Thank you.

1) backup whatever you want to backup

2) power off phone, take out sim and external sd

3) power on, format internal sd card and make a factory reset (*2767*3855# is the code for that if i recal good)

4) download mode -> flash with repartition and 512 pit the 3 file version of 2.3.3 bootloaders or not whatever i take the one with them :)

youre done :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ashatron:

thanks a lot mate, thats really helpful! :)

I didnt format, but did do a 'wipe / factory reset' and clear cache (forget the exact name of this option) from recovery.

nor did i repartition and pit, could that have casued the problem?

Stock ramad 2.3.3 jvk

Flashed via odin, as per the instructions in the original post

(without repartition and pit)

Then rooted with CF-2.9

I experienced very good battery then had a random single episode of rapid depletion.

Then flashed super curio's kernel for jvk (lagfix plus ext4 conversion)

And had the same experience - had good battery, but again a random episode of rapid depletion (60% overnight while idle, wifi and gps off, received no calls or texts).
