Hello

Can i use the new gingerbread Build number GINGERBREAD.XWJVB on bell with the i9000m?

just wondering if theres any concerns with spoofing the firmware and using kies to update to this.

do i need to choose a bell csc after i flash or will i need to manualy enter apn? thanks all

im just disapointed with bell being so far behind (still 2.2!!)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warfanax:
I tried yesterday night with NEE code but kies didn't find any update.

I also want to know the answer of this question.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HollowSoulz:
Ok so i did some screwing around with my i9000m from bell seeing as how my little boy fried my last one. Want to load gingerbread you can do it just pay attention to a lot of things. I loaded Juwe's build now here's the key I've got the xwjvb kernel running so far no issues right now the only issue that comes with this rom is the modem doesn't like our towers here in Canada go figure right! but alas you can load the KC1 modem after going through the xwjvb build aka gingerbread it works. take a look at Juwe's rom it's well worth the effort and looks great! Good Luck out there!

I'll have to try that one
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgsshedden:
if you want to use Kies you will probably have to wait a while for Bell to catch up. Bite the bullet, install Odin 1.7 and use it to install the JK bootloaders (see thread) and either the stock deodexed JVK or the Rom of your choice. Using a Rom based on CF3.1 gets you rooted and installs CWM which will allow you to do everything else later without using Odin again. See the help/install for Doc's Rom and the instructions for CF3.1 they are laid out very straight forwardly (and see the q and a sextion) .After, add the KC1 modem if necessary -- I use it and it works great and is the latest modem for BMC (Bell). The reason to load deodexed is that you can that add and change themes as you want. You do not need the Bell CSC stuff. Couple of good guides now posted: seems a little daunting at first but works fine. Read first and know there's lots of people here to help: got a lot easier once I leanrt the SGS is actually very hard to kill completely: most locks are just a soft brick!

Newbie Question:

Curious about how to go about installing themes?

1)I looked but didn't see a beginners guide to installing themes---any help?

2) My phone is rooted and running superclean 2.9.x....

Am I limited to themes associated with this ROM?

thanks for all your help in advance
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] dave3588:
Since your running on eb01 you can flash any theme made to run on that build through cement just like u would install a Tom or kernel. Just install the zip and your good to go
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] landshark68:
I think his auto correct is a little haywire. What he meant was you can flash any theme made to run on that build through clockworkmod recovery (cwm) just like you would install a ROM or kernel. There should be a thread started with the funniest auto correct posts. :p
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] gkirby11:
Please limit your questions to the Q and A forum, there are guidelines for a reason. :D

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fooligar:
First time poster here, I bought my GTablet on the woot deal a few weeks back.

My GTablet seems to be acting up.. It presses the capacitive buttons on its own randomly. I don't know what's up with it. See vid below.

[edit] Can't seem to post links since this is a first post.

For now I've disabled the home, back, search, menu buttons with Button Remapper and use Button Savior instead.

Anyone know what's wrong with it?

CAn u help me, my blackstone camera was broken after install andoid 2.2 .cab. is there any one can help me
[Touch HD General] hrk7474:
I'm assuming you installed the Android 2.2 (FroYo) On HTC [03 Sep 2010] (V1.6) cab, which is easy to install but more than half a year old already. If that's the build you installed you can help yourself by reading the Known Issues segment in the first post. ;)

EDIT: I see you also posted in the Touch HD ROM Development section that the camera 'broke' after flashing an Energy ROM... :rolleyes:
[Touch HD General] b0g4r4:
Thanks for response sir. Actually i'm new in HD. First i install Android on HD and then i continue with new energy rom. While finished, i test the camera, it suddenly not working. I don't know which one the problem, is it while i install the android or the Energy room?. Now, i turn it back to this room "hTC_Asia_WWE_1.18.707.3_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14_Ship" and it shows blank screen (black) if i open the camera. After capture a message comes "Unable to capture photo. Unable to get frame data from camera device".

Any solutions please .. .Is it my mainborad broken? i bought this phone for video call purpose..
[Touch HD General] g3rm0:
If you flashed back shipped ROM and it's still not working it must be a hardware fault. Flash back stock SPL if you have HSPL flashed and send your phone for warranty repair.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zenkinz:
Hi all,

Trying to mod the framework for the first time.

I have no problem replacing the png. But when i try to modify the xml, i get bootloop.

I used the apk manager (4.9) to decompile the apk, then edit one xml before i recompile. I did notice that the recompiled apk is at least 2MB smaller than the original.

Am i missing a step here?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galaxyer:
Hi

yap ,,,the generated apk is unsigned...and no sign for system apk..so you have to copy by drag & drop the following files from the unsigned apk onto the original apk via WinRar and choosing ZIP archive format, NORMAL compression method.

- resources.arsc file

- res folder

- classes.dex file if exisit in the non-system apks

hope that help

good luck
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zenkinz:
Ah,

I was thinking this as a possible workaround so it looks like it is thr solution?

Just a confirmation, if i change the battery_charging.xml, then i should compile, then extract out the battery_charging.xml from the recompiled framework-res.apk and insert into the original, signed framework-res.apk?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zenkinz:
I tried taking the compiled xml ( that defines the animation of battery charging icon on the status bar), put into the original framework-res.apk, and end up with non existent icon for the battery charging. Everything else remains working though.

What could have gone wrong?

When I called HTC for a battery cover replacement, I told them I also need a warranty replacement for the battery since it doesn't last for 4 hrs on a full charge. They sent me replacements for battery, battery cover & sim cover. I had the phone over 30 days.

Didn't work for some people here. But maybe calling on a Saturday and talk to a lady Rep might make a difference. I forgot her name though. She was very helpful.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Silas0220:
Best way to get an OEM battery? Call HTC and complain about the battery life and ask to be sent to the accessories dept. Ask them about an extended battery and when they tell you there isn't one (because of course, there isn't), ask them to send you a new stock one to replace the one you have, since you know, it might be defective. I didn't even have to ask for one and they shipped me one with a new cover for free.

[HTC EVO 3D] Vvlioncourtvv:
Went online last night looking for any new news on the evo 3d. I came across several websites that seem to contradict each other as far as the specs go. I came across sites stating it will have 1gb internal memory others say it is 4gb. I understand the contradiction on that due to the initial contradicting spec posts by sprint and htc and the cdma vs gsm thing. However I came across other sites that are now stating 8gb as the internal memory. No I am not mixing this up with the included 8gb memory card as it specifically stated "8gb of internal memory" and the memory card was actually listed further down the spec list. Can anyone shed light on this subject?

Sent by my evo 4g using sprint 4g network.
[HTC EVO 3D] AyyRayy:
HTC has a sprint version /cdma that has 4gb internal with a 8gb SD card. The 1gb internal is the GSM version.

[HTC EVO 3D] heathmcabee:
You are looking at the GSM version vs the CDMA version specs.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vvlioncourtvv:
Yeah that's the info I knew to be true. I just ran across a few sites that specifically stated "8gb of internal memory" so I was just curious if there was decision to up the memory or if it was just a mistake on the sites. I felt it was worth asking since it wasn't just one site it was multiple that posted this.

Sure would be nice if Sprint/HTC also hooked us up with a 32GB SD card like the Thunderbolt got.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bukem75:
Verizon charges for that sd card... They pass the cost on to the people buying the thunderbolt...

If sprint included a card, I would only buy the package deal if forced then sell the card to offset the cost on a quality 32GB class 10 like the patriot I bought at Fry's for 90$... Even so, I would rather not pay extra for a crap class 2 sd card... Rather buy the Evo as cheaply as possible.
[HTC EVO 3D] trukenx:
WAIT!!!!!

I think we missed something on the htc website i haven't looked much into this since I Initially looked into the g2 another htc device which also had a 4gb emmc internal memory. but giving the fact that running at x4 was too unstable due to low voltage stability issues they partition a huge chunk at x2 "enhanced user"which almost halfed the amount of internal memory... to 2.10GB to be exact. if the same is true for te evo 3d then expect actual 2.10 GB internal memory

Hello all,

First of all, for everything you need to be rooted. Make sure you have a decent backup of all your apps(*hint* Titanum Backup)

Deodexed, Zipalignd, Haptic Feedback enabled files

Today I've deodexed and zipaligned the firmware files for Stock firmware S5830XXKC1. Also added Haptic feedback option under Sound Options.

I've made it in a handy script.

Download link: Here

Instructions:

-Extract the archive to /sdcard/optimize/
-open shell (adb)
-Become root:
su
-Type in the following commands:
cp /sdcard/optimize/optimize.sh /data/local/tmp/
-Cd to the dir
cd /data/local/tmp/
-Execute the file:
./optimize.sh

If everything worked fine you get the notice that you should reboot. Do that and you are deodexed. Reboot can take long though because android needs to rebuild dalvik cache.

ROOT Busybox Fix

I've also found a fix for the people who have problems with busybox after rooting. Found out that stock firmware already contains busybox in /system/bin. And SOC1.7 adds root busybox to /system/xbin.

So the fix:

mount -o,rw,remount -t rfs /dev/stl12 /system
rm /system/bin/busybox
mount -o,ro,remount -t rfs /dev/stl12 /system

Modified majedev A2SD script to include kernel modules for ext3&4

I've modified the shell script to automatically include kernel modules, and copy update.zip to root of sd.

See attachment A2sd modified.rar

-Extract the contents to the root of the sdcard
-Disconnect mass storage and login to ADB shell as root:
adb shell
su
-Type in the following commands (try copy-paste each line then hit enter):
cp /sdcard/optimize/a2sd_enabler.sh /data/local/tmp/
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/a2sd_enabler.sh
./a2sd_enabler.sh
-To double check everything, reboot your phone and login again as root through adb, then run the following command, and find a line similar to the highlighted line in the output below:
su
df
-Look for this line:
/system/sd: 1032088K total, 38512K used, 993576K available (block size 4096)
-If this line is present you can go ahead and do:
-Reboot in recovery and apply update.zip

It also copies update.zip to the root of the sd so you can reboot and apply update.zip. This step enables a2sd. Credits to majedev.

Great work buddy :)

Would you give me a hint on enabling Haptic Feedback? I've successfully deodexed and zipaligned my firmware (S5830JPKA7)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] peeter123:
Yea sure, you need APK Manger. Decompile Settings.apk with option 9.

Then look in the projects folder for Settings.apk/smali/com/android/settings for SoundSettings.smali. Open the file with notepad and look for this:

.line 138
invoke-virtual {p0}, Lcom/android/settings/SoundSettings;->getPreferenceScreen()Landroid/preference/PreferenceScreen;

move-result-object v4

iget-object v5, p0, Lcom/android/settings/SoundSettings;->mHapticFeedback:Landroid/preference/CheckBoxPreference;

invoke-virtual {v4, v5}, Landroid/preference/PreferenceScreen;->removePreference(Landroid/preference/Preference;)Z

Delete this block, save and recompile your apk with APK manager option 11. Then goto blabal-modding and copy unsignedSettings.apk to your phone and replace Settings.apk with it. Remember to backup your original settings.apk.

Steps for replacing.

- Su

- Remount /system rw -> mount -o,rw,remount /dev/stl12 /system

- type: stop

- mv Settings.apk Settings.apk.bak

- mv unsignedSettings.apk Settings.apk

- Remount /system-> mount -o,ro,remount /dev/stl12 /system

- Reboot

Btw you need Deodexed filesys
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] majedev:
Okay, got the "Haptic Feedback" option to show up in the menu, but checking it didn't actually enable haptic feedback (tried different settings with vibration always on, silent mode..). I think there's more to it than just "unhiding" the checkbox ;)

Did it work for you?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Tristan971:
Hi peter, the ext3/4 modules works properly, whereas, the intall-recovery.sh doesn't mount correctly the SD(HC) formatted in ext4. I tried some options but 'cause I'm new to android specificities, I prefer not trying to much (don't wanna break my phone >_<)

Whereas, thank you again for your efforts :)

PS : and hum... sorry for my bad english because I'm french :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] peeter123:
Yeah not for keyboard indeed, but opera has feedback now, and try holdin menu or home. Or long press to copy. I know its not much but some functions got feedback now. Need to investigate more ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] peeter123:
You have to change instal-recovery.sh ;) change ext2 to ext4:)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] majedev:
Hmm, it seems like enabling Haptic feedback in settings sets a global value for applications to test whether it is enabled or not, but it is the application's developer responsibility to actually call performHapticFeedback(): http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#performHapticFeedback(int)

I'm trying to inject some vibration code into AxT9IME.apk package (Samsung Keypad) press event handler, but this will take sometime. Btw, I modified the keyboard layout and moved the annoying settings button to the left.

Edit:

Well, according to documentation, "The framework will provide haptic feedback for some built in actions, such as long presses, but you may wish to provide feedback for your own widget." So basically, HF is automated only for long presses (tested it on many applications).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Tristan971:
I did It but I'll try again ;) Thank you :)

Isn't this good as install-recovery.sh ?

#!/system/bin/sh
insmod /system/lib/modules/jbd.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/jbd2.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/ext3.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/ext4.ko
mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd
/system/bin/sh /system/etc/init.d/dtapp
/system/bin/sh /system/etc/init.d/99complete

So the steps are like this ?

1. format to ext4

2. Go in adb shell > su :

3. place the ext3&4 modules to /system/lib/modules, then activate them with insmod

4. run install-recovery.sh

But at the fourth step, this line fail to execute :

mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd

And if it goes perfectly, I place the update.zip to SDHC root, then get to recovery and apply it?

No more things to do?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] majedev:
What error do you see when you execute "mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd"? Did you create the /system/sd directory "mkdir /system/sd" before mounting?

Also, if the install-recovery.sh script didn't work at boot, try adding a "sleep 8" before (or after) mount. This works for me on ext3.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Tristan971:
Thank you for the tips ;)

I don't exactly rember the error but i know that there was a no directory error, i wasn't at home today, but i'll try it tomorrow

(I'm GMT -4 : French west indies, in the caribeens)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Tristan971:
Ok, so I tried again and again... Auto (w/ script) failed, so I tried manually

I only use 90mo/181mo on interna storage...

I think a picture will explain much better :/

And I post a 2d one when I use the modified a2sd_enabler.sh

So what's my error :/

SDHC is formatted with a 6Go "DATA" (FAT32) partition and a 2Go "EXT2" (Ext2) partition ;)

and for the las pic, I show you my df, dunno if it can help, but maybe it will ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] peeter123:
When you do this manually you also remount /system as RW.

mount -o,rw,remount /dev/stl12 /system.

If it doesn't work in shell try to copy those files in root explorer or something like that.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] majedev:
Your /system partition is full, so you can't create directories or copy files unless you free up some space. Remount your system as RW as peeter123 suggested, then remove some unneeded apps from /system/app. You can use Root Explorer for ease of use.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Tristan971:
Ok, thank you ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Tristan971:

You used it on the correct firmware? Works fine for me so weaird ;) Can you turn of your phone, type in adb logcat and then turn on. Look for errors. And do: ls /system/framework/ and ls /system/app.
