[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hofinho:
The new bootloaders are compatible with froyo and even eclair thus you dont have to flash the old ones. nevertheless i would recommend to do a clean install which means you should flash any stock froyo Firmware with repartition first and then flash any Kernel with cwm in order to flash the rom you want
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlbloem:
Cheers, that's the answer i was hoping for :).

Considering the modem, my guess is that it shouldn't be an issue to leave the JVK modem intact?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hofinho:
no it shouldnt. but if you flash a custom rom afterwards it will be changed anyway
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
JVK is a good modem .

Can I flash the 3.0 sense lockscreen and the battery mod that are listed on his thread?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] elginsk8r:
I dunno, try and let me know how it turns out

I will try to fix the lockscreen and include it in the next build. Thanks for the fast reply.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anamorphica:
Hello!

I've been trying to find out is it possible to flash roms/mods if I have flashed voodoo kernel? I flashed it few days ago and phone goes like racing car :)

I'm not completely newbie, but what comes to android hacking... I haven't found out few things like: What's the difference between mods, roms and kernel. Well... For example.. Can I flash tw4 if I've flashed voodoo kernel?

I don't need "how to" answers just I'd like to know more about these things.

Allso.. If someone knows websites telling huge amounts of info about these things please ad those too :)

Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
you can install TW4 if you are on a samsung based ROM,

samsung apps will not work with ROMS such as Cyanogen and MIUI.

And you dont need to remove lagfix unless moving ROM or Kernel, if you are just updating to a newer version, its not necessary.

the best place to find your answers is here on XDA, you would be surprised what comes from the search bar :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anamorphica:
Thank you for the answer.

I tried to find answers with search. Some I found sme I didn't..

I cannot find info about project voodoo's voodoo kernel 5.5. Is it just lagfix and can I flash darky's rom without deleting/uninstalling voodoo lagfix?

I didn't find voodoo on roms list so I think it's not rom?

I'm asking becouse I findout that darkys rom... Well darkys voodoo seems very nice but it uses same kernel modifications as voodoo kernel but has much more modifications (improved gallery etc. etc.) I'm asking this becouse I really like voodoo lagfixs voodoo sound improvements....
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
yeah, voodoo is the kernel.

but darkys roms come with voodoo kernel built in, you can select this using his 'DarkyROM' app found in the market (free), you select what you want, i.e boot animation, theme, kernel, added extras. Hit save and then flash his rom and it will do the rest for you.

If you want to use darkys ROM 9.2 or higher. Flash his resurrection ROM via odin, and that will give you the base package to move upwards :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anamorphica:
Oh right! Tanks!

It really seems I'm quite newbie :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
we all was at one time, dont worry about it.

The key thing when doing any sort of modifications is be sure you know what your doing. and always have a backup plan.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anamorphica:
That's right. It's why I have not done rom flashes or anything else before getting enough info. Tough I've heard that!"while doing you'll learn" but sgs is too expensive to do such experiences. :)

Thanks for all the answers!
[General Questions and Answers] Printerscape:
real.apk = what I want to install

front.apk = just a "front"

Is it possible for front.apk to simply have a link to the real.apk within its resources, to install real.apk?

For example, I install front.apk, and it just has instructions, and a clickable box that says "Install 1: <asdf>"-

*It runs real.apk in the resources, and starts the installation process (asks the user for permission, etc.)

I'm wondering because I want to make a "compilation" of .apks, and one "master" .apk file. If this is not possible, is there any other way to do this?

I tried one method, and it didn't work at all:

*Using PhoneGap, put the real.apk inside the www directory (with the index.html), and create a code within the index.html that references to the real.apk (<a href="real.apk">Install 1: <asdf></a>), and it didn't work at all...
[General Questions and Answers] Not2LonG:
dam you way smarter than me on that
[General Questions and Answers] Printerscape:
By "resources", I mean the real.apk is within the front.apk, and I physically don't have to download anything more than just front.apk (as real.apk is included inside front.apk).

So I can just have one "master" 'front.apk' file (that's several tens of megs probably) all with click-to-install .apks.

Note: I don't care if it has to pop up permissions for every "apk" installation. I just want to have ONE master .apk file. Would this be, at all, possible? If not with simple .APKs, would it be possible to decompile APK -> .JAR -> .JAVA and somehow put all this inside one "master" file using eclipse?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Droid DOES!!:
This is built off of the Black Board skin and I didn't even realize how similar to Dusk BAMF it was when I started and I almost gave it up when I found that out! However, this skin is wayyy more complete. I thought I was done before but there were some images that I wasn't satisfied with so I scrapped a lot of what I had done and themed some images I didn't realize I missed. Acceptable considering the main folder has 1,030 images in it. The majority of my images were created from the ground up (not a copy and paste kind of guy). This will be a preview of my full theme for Das BAMF that I'm also working on.

Thank you to: Corinacakes (My mentor whom NONE of this would've been possible without), Lady Angler (Dear friend -Thank you for keeping me focused and determined on this), Chucklehead (Beta tester -You rock!!!), and Tallica (Thanks for Apk Manager 4.9 and some tricks I never knew about)

Features:

- Stock statusbar (Not transparent)

- I'll just say open the music app

- Crimson red colors and icons

- Many images aren't seen (themes for these things are crazy!!)

- ALL images have been themed...1,215 to be exact!! If its not themed, its not in the skin or controlled by it

- Transparent lock screen and incoming call sliders

- Red volume progress fill (speaker is still green at the top -this is pulled from the actual framework and not controlled by the skin unfortunately)

- Green crop border in gallery changed to red

- Lock screen Time and "Screen Locked" text changed to red (date color is pulled from framework)

- Right icon on navbar changed to red arrows

- Replaced digital number font of clock/weather widget to themed flip-like numbers, background is transparent..with a hint of grey

- Custom "DROID DOES" black/carbon fiber status_bar_close icon (pulldown footer)

-Open the Clock app

When I upgrade from 1.32 to 1.72 it took 45 minutes... Still nothing in the UK :(
[Desire HD General] crilin80:
Can you please tell me the exact version number?

I've installed the RUU few days ago, the version is 2.36.405.8. I wonder if it is the same.

Thanks
[Desire HD General] raptor91:
Download : about 5 minutes (20Mbps)

Install : almost 15 minutes (checking update, installing and DHD reboot)

2.3.3 android version

Build number : 2.36.405.8

Quadrant score : 1416 :/
[Desire HD General] sergiu_07_07:
you installed it yet?Mine is still at the little android robot showing an exclamation mark.Is it normal?
[Desire HD General] Advis:
Nothing here on unbranded 1.72 T Mobile in the UK. HTC only allow a batch of IMEIs at a time as I understand so I take it I'm not in the lucky first group.

Mine is still installing after arpox 40 min
[Desire HD General] raptor91:
Mine took around 15minutes (I sent you a private message)

But is it normal that Quadrant score now is 1400 ? although applications and games are running very well but 1400 score is considered as low (instead of 2000+ before update)
[Desire HD General] rayman18:
dont mind about quadrant, its a non optimiced test, the importat thing is if the system works propertrly and better than Froyo.. ;)

This might seem like a stupid question, but if i got my DHD imported from the UK (unlocked and unbranded) to Australia will i be getting my update via HTC UK or HTC Australia ?
[Desire HD General] Anant:
This depends on CID.

If the set is for UK market even though you use it in any part of world you will get update from HTC UK. It is being coded that way that's why we use gold card method to cheat this checking CID.
[Desire HD General] :
How would we check? I too unbranded my phone as I got it in Singapore And I still can't update via OTA
[Desire HD General] Pruikki:
Hello. can some one Understand this what i have here?

in Froyo 2.2 i got in QUADRANT 1900-2250(mostly 2000)

and best result is 1700!! What the @.

Why is this so? why vorse, and not better? i so want a answer! please!
[Desire HD General] Pruikki:
same problem here in finland,

STILL DO UPDATE, the colors are better now and camera is better as is the sound!
[Desire HD General] Anant:
You need Android SDK on your windows PC.

Search this great forum and you will get the answer where your DHD is being branded.

If the update is released for Singapore and the set is also branded for Singapore (coded in CID for Singapore) you will get update when HTC Singapore will release the update even though you live in Australia.
[Desire HD General] Pruikki:
Yeah. this will take some time!
[Desire HD General] SB13X:
What if I have Super CID? Will I need to revert that back to stock HTC 001? To get the update?

Do you need to have a sim in your phone to get the update via OTA or can you do it without a sim in the phone?

Based on previous updates, in.

ok thanks ill have to put my my sim in br I have been using my NS lately

No worries. Hopefully it won't take long.

[Desire HD General] iridium21:
Nope, nothing still by the looks of it! :mad:
[Desire HD General] Mr_JMM:
Even if someone reported they received the update today unbranded in the UK it could still take a several days to reach everyone.

Wait. When your handset is sent the update you will be notified.

Please, pretty please with cherries on top, no more posts to say you haven't got the update. If no one else has then by all means post when you do including country, region and network.

Why? Because it does not help those people genuinely looking for an answer and forum rules says not to post anything if it already has been said (unless requested by OP).
[Desire HD General] LeeArden:
did you have 1.84 when you checked? or some other version? i have 1.84 and no update is available when i check.
[Desire HD General] iknorr:
People seriously need to relax, a few pages back someone quoted HTC uk as saying the update will start again on the 8th .

FFS, like, if you cant wait another day then just go out and by a Desire S or root the phone.

And remember its not just HTC involved with the update of unbranded phones, the carriers u bought it from need to give approval also.
[Desire HD General] iridium21:
I couldn't find that post, but it appears that HTC UK Support are telling different people different things. For example, they told me yesterday morning (Friday) that it would happen Friday or Saturday. Still nowt. :(

No ta. ;)

What if you bought it unbranded and with totally no carrier involvement?
[Desire HD General] mjt:
You appear to be fighting a losing battle there mate!
[Desire HD General] Mr_JMM:
Tell me about it.

Had all this on this on the expansys forums but after 4,500 posts I'd had enough. Got thicker skin now though. And an even bigger tea cup.
[Desire HD General] iridium21:
I suppose, if people disliked the replies on this thread so much, that they could just ignore the thread completely?

I mean, I wouldn't want someone to have a stroke/heart attack due to high blood pressure because they're becoming so irate reading it...
[Desire HD General] Mr_JMM:
I'm not stressed.

I am simply trying to ensure the thread remains useful to everyone and that means trying to ensure that the information is as easy as possible to find.

Also, as I've said before, the forum rules are in place for a reason and one of those reasons is to help with the above.

If I really wanted to get stressed about it I could simply report the duplicate posts and name and shame the users that are failing to follow the forum rules to the mods.

But I don't. I stay calm and try and perform this task without being rude about it.
[Desire HD General] domnic619:
no update in india yet

hope they roll the ota out here soon too
[Desire HD General] Reckless187:
I updated my DHD last night. I'm in the UK and on Vodafone.

Swype doesnt work for me anymore, its keeps minimising off the screen and I had to revert to the stock keyboard. Not had much of a play with it yet but I noticed the stock keyboard now has directioanl arrows so you can move the cursor about.
[Desire HD General] iridium21:
Now, I could see your point if the replies to the thread were completely off-topic, but...

Also, would it be fair to say that as you're using the CyanogenMod ROM that the official update to 2.3 (and therefore this thread) is of little concern to you?

Really, I must say that I find your self-styled, vigilante moderation attempts a little strange.
[Desire HD General] iridium21:
Yeah, it appears, strangely, that the only people in the UK that have received this update are Voda subscribers.
[Desire HD General] hp0369:
NO update yet in HK...............
[Desire HD General] nickhuk:
I completely agree, it does not concern you in the slightest and yes, maybe there are duplicate posts but it means all users are getting up-to-date information regarding the FOTA update - depending on network and territory, even if there has been no change it puts users at ease that the update has not been pushed to others’ and not just they’re device.

[Desire HD General] CodeNameUnknown1:
I spoke to HTC 2day and they said that UK will get their updates during the next few weeks...

its up to the carriers to modify and release, so sme ppl will get it earlier than others
[Desire HD General] abhishekagrawal:
Have been reading this and other Gingerbread update threads as have been impatiently waiting for it to be released in India and I must say I totally agree with others, you are not even on stock ROM so it does not concern you and if it pains you so much to see people asking again and again same questions or remarking then you should probably ignore the thread completely, there is no need to justify your cheeky remarks by saying you are helping to keep thread tidy because frankly you are also increasing the unnecessary comments by replying to them. You are not a Moderator and am sure as usual Mods are watching and will do their part when needed.
[Desire HD General] kurolife:
Ok here are some info that i have

HTC OTA update has been pulled till monday for unbranded HDH in France

Branded SFR are getting updated, which is a partner of vodafone so the UK phones should be getting the update at by now

Orange branded(my case) are not getting anything so far which is pretty much annoying

Also you have to know that HTC is running the updates by lot of IMEIs, it can't update all the millions phones at once the servers won't handle and the carriers won't like it either...
[Desire HD General] arkanovios:
Had the option to update but instead i chose to root and install Leedroids rom.

Not going back now :)
[Desire HD General] MrDamBeaver:
I know this is a long shot, but does anybody know the status of the update for Telus in Canada. There has been a lot of activity for European countries, but I heard nothing from this side of the pond.

I've emailed HTC but they replied with a generic: "we have no idea". Emailed Telus but no answer yet, and they clerk at the store was absolutely clueless about what Gingerbread even is.

Second, I never get update on my phone. I try to 'check now' for it from time to time, but noting. Now I saw that I have 1.32.405.6 software number, and I read is some 1.72 or so, version. Will I get new 2.36?? I have SIM free phone?? Tnx

Anyone know what's going on there?

Yes 1.84.110.3 is a minor update for t-mobile branded DHD running 2.2.

RUU's :- Gingerbread

All credits go to Poster Andrew Harney he's the one who helped me out with how to do it, instructions come within the exe file just follow them exactly and read the readme file before proceeding.

BTW, I believe to use that file you must be using a unbranded device.
