some questions from a learner

I have a couple of very newbie questions about this ROM.

I have installed it ok and it works, however my phone seems to reboot a lot, has done so about 6 times now for no apparent reason.

My other questions are as follows;

1. How do I apply the MT_4.1_UPDATEPack file

2. Where do I get the update.zip file from and where do I apply it from? I seem to recall doing it in 3 button recovery mode the 1 and only time I messed with my phone (over a year ago) and can't remember what the file is for and where I get it from.

3. Why does my phone keep re-booting by itself?

I think those are my questions so far.

Cheers

Homer

Edit: I forgot to add that during the install I was unable to do these steps as I simply couldn't find these sections anywhere;

wipe boot

wipe system

wpe data

wipe dbdata

EDIT2: I've just checked my phone and I seem to have ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.0.5 but when I use ROM manager it tells me I have 2.5.0.2 ? What's going on here?

EDIT:3 Constant rebooting....crashes big time. Trying another install to see if it had dramas the first time
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] antique_sonic:
I ain't an expert, but I use miki's rom since ExtraOrdinary 3.3.

Normally I will follow the instructions written on the 1st page, where he will described in details on how to flash. And you can't skip any of the process.

So far, I follow the instructions, Thanks God, my phone never brick :D

To apply the Update.zip, you can use the CWM program, and choose "flash update", and you choose your file "MT_4.1_UPDATEPack.zip".

When you want to run the CWM, if the CWM ask for SU permission, just grant it.

---------- Post added at 06:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:59 PM ----------

The update.zip you can download from the 1st page. then you must copy the update.zip to your mobile phone.

Easier for you to use the CWM application, because the CWM will scan where the zip file is inside your mobile phone.

But if you wish to use the 3 button recovery, you shall better put / copy the update.zip to an easier place for you to find when you want to apply from recovery mod.

Must be crash :p Must be something wrong during the installation, and the installation wasn't done properly. That's why some process is hang, and make the processor very hot, and make the phone restarting.

Try to reinstall again, following the instructions at 1st page one by one.

I think, should be listed at the recovery mod. :D

Use it for 3 hours, so far so good

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] homerlovesbeer:
Thanks antique_sonic.

When it says "update.zip" is the file actually called "update.zip" or is it actually the file "MT_4.1_UPDATEPack"

That really is confusing when they word the instructions like that.

And where is the recovery mod?

Thanks again!

Miki,

Now i face problem.

The market can only do downloads max to 2-4 apps in a row. After that when i press download, it is start to download then stop.

Solution : i restart the phone. But same, only for the next 2-4 apps.

:)

Would installing semaphore JVS help this?

But i can tell u, i love this latest rom. Speeding like hell! Battery life very good!

Damn it... I like u, dude. Thanks so much. Pls help for this market problem.

Once the phone shows signs of life, let go of the buttons, it will then show a large yellow traingle. Thats it, your in download mode :)

But, pls provide me a link to download the semaphore JVS.

Thank u! Ur this rom are superb. My battery still 75% after installing and restarting so many times. Great!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xiaohanhan:
Thanks. I prefer using cwm recovery just like your 4.0 JVS zip. So I can flash on the go without connecting to PC.

Is there a cwm recovery or zip version for 4.1 JVT?

My gf say she loves this rom after I flash for her.

Also please advise whether TV out works on this rom ?

I could be the first to install using an i897 (US - AT&T) Captivate (requires using a different kernel, 850mhz-enabled modem, and a fix for the home button), but regardless this ROM is smooth and amazing.

How do I upgrade Maps because it keeps telling me 'Package file was not signed correctly' ?

For my ROM is not need to root phone. But, if u want to root yor phone first, tnen do with chainfire kernel. U can always beck to stock rom if somethyng gos wrong.

No I don't.

I can guess but guessing causes problems. Great work in your ROM, sorry I am asking so many questions
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ph.miki:
Is it in zip of tar fomat (kernel I meen)?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mardanpet:
do this.

Put your phone into download mode, then connect to your PC.

Run Odin, press PDA and choose the TAR file that you downloaded (semaphore 1.7.5 JVS)

leave everything else as it is, and press START
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] homerlovesbeer:
tar format downloaded from here through mardanpet (thanks mate)

So what options should be ticked in Odin for ORIGINAL ROM and then the Kernal upgrade?

Thanks!!!

Hahahahahahahaah
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mardanpet:
if your flashing the full rom including JVT, then you select PIT file, then select the rom (in the TAR file)

tick REPARTITION press START

the only difference if your doing just the JVS kernel is do not tick repartition, and do not choose any pit file
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ph.miki:
Thank you, I'm going to eat something. My PR will give you instructions.

Thanks guys,

I'm going through full reinstall then applying Kernal as we chat.

Crossed fingers it works
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mardanpet:
after you have installed the rom, give it time to settle down, and a few shutdowns before you decide its time for JVS, as JVT does run fine for some
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] homerlovesbeer:
When I went through the motions of installing EXTRAordinary 4.1 SGSII (JVS-JVT) ROM last night I had the phone locking up and rebooting constantly nearly every 3-4 minutes. I don't expect this time to be any different although it would be great if it is!

EDIT: After applying the update.zip is there any reason to wipe data/factory reset or do I just reboot the phone without wiping anything?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mardanpet:
if you had that, flash the JVS 175 kernel, that should fix it

2. installing old market backup up with titanium

bloody hell

Another issue. Can't update Google Maps.

"Package file was not signed correctly" or something like that. I imagine it's due to a non standard version of maps?
