Windows and Cygwin are more than enough to do what this guide is about, so no need to install Linux unnecessarily, as this is not real dev work. Also, yeah, this guide is NOT for making a factoryfs file, but to make a custom ROM in .zip format. Perka has been making nice ROMs using the same method. Linux may be great for all those 'hot headed/proud devs', but it's surely not required to make a custom ROM.

Don't spam, do something better or leave it be..

EDIT: No offence to those great devs out there. Atleast, no offence to those nice and well mannered devs..

There are people here who spend a significant portion of their free time helping others get the most out of their devices for free.

Then there are those who sit on their computer being keyboard warriors and expect everything to be given to them. Show some respect.

Bottom line - do not troll.

BTW guys, I am currently working on Samsung Galaxy S2 support for the kitchen, it is now in testing phase. Just giving a heads up in case anyone is considering getting an SGS2. Support is there for Linux/Mac/Windows.

Thanks Perka for this guide, as I have always been getting requests to add SGS support myself, but I am unable to. I don't have Samsung Galaxy S support built into the kitchen but I'm surprised there are people who actually think I have a trillion devices in my hand to test ;)

If you need a guide,to download the linux versions of apk_manager and kitchen,then you must download windows...

Thank you!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Perka:
Ofc, upload and link pls.

New version of APK Manager

APK Manager 5.0.1

New version of dsixda Kitchen

Version 0.179
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dsixda:
Hi guys, the latest version of Android Kitchen now includes support for the Galaxy S. You can use the kitchen to extract and create Galaxy S ROMs without the use of a template. Thanks to Perka for helping me test it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Perka:
OP updated!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gvdn:
Hi what exactly is specific to the sgs template? I ask as i have a sgs but just bought my wife a s5660 and important using it to learn how to make roms. Isn't the template inhere good for s5660? Also isn't kitchen generating a template?

Sorry for all the noob questions but that is what i am :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gvdn:
Ow and Perka in apk manager i get to answer a question about /res. Its asking me if it's a file or folder. Googled a bit and i think its folder so thats what i choose "d"

Is this correct?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gvdn:
Any guide on how to do this new way? Or could u explain? thx
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dsixda:
Yes I have been intending to post a guide for a while now, just like I did for the Galaxy S2. Will come sometime soon.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gvdn:
Thx for someone brand new to all this that would be much appreciated .

I just finished optimizing all my apk and ready to copy back to working folder. One thing i don't get. Where do u get new app versions? I mean maps has been to version 5.10. where can i find it and do i just place under system data ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Perka:
Folder is right.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Perka:
Get super manager and extract the apk u want.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gvdn:
Don't understand what u mean then again never heard about supermanager so ill go check that out and read about that before asking more silly questions.

Think once i got my Rom made i will make a guide. Think for people brand new to this it will come in handy as i will probably go more into details and able to tell em where i made mistakes and how u should do it when u make em.

To u guys this is all simple B-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Perka:
Dl supermanager from market. Run it and use apk manager. Click on the apk u want.

Choose bApk option. Then it will ask u if u want original name or readable, u want original.

And yes make a guide :-D

thats what I did, but not so good I guess :-P , the more guides the better ;-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gvdn:
The for that Perka . Your guide is great but due to the fact this is al obvious to u, u skip steps. Like how to install adb for example ,..... all the basic stuff :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gvdn:
No way to do this automaticaly? Just asking that way i dont need to be near pc when i zipalign-optimize
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gvdn:
Thx alot for this
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Perka:
Good point, im glad that u are making a guide :-D

Thx for helping. This is android :-D

When I flash the ROM in recovery, automatically the ROM restarts, why? I have added various ui_print at the end of the updater-script, but is not displayed in the recovery because is auto-reboot!

Can you tell me the neccesary lines in updater-script to delete? or edit?

[Galaxy S I9000 General] jjchico:
Hi!

Some users (like me) are experiencing BT activation problems with CF-Root kernel on stock xxjvp and xxjvq roms.

Some discussion is happening at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=788108#. Unfortunately, I cannot post there because I am a newbie and that is a developers thread.

My millage:

* Stock XXJVP + CF-Root + Default Tweaks. BT activation did not work sometimes. Sometimes it worked after a reboot, sometimes it did not.

* Stock XXJVQ + CF-Root + No Tweaks. BT worked at the beginning. No Tweaks looked like a solution like mentioned in the above thread.

* Stock XXJVQ + CF-Root + No Tweaks + ext4.

* Stock XXJVQ + CF-Root + Default Tweaks + ext4.

BT not working. I put wifi off. After a reboot, BT is working again but only if BT is activated before activating wifi for the first time. Afterwords, Wifi and BT can be set on/off without problem.

Conclusions:

* CF-Root may break/interfere with BT activation.

* Disabling all tweaks is no a final solution. May be it is not relevant.

* Disabling wifi before a reboot may be a solution. Needs more test by other users.

* It seems the problem happens when wifi is activated before BT after a reboot.

Please, report you millage.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] daran:
Hey I have the same problem the bluetooth has a mind of its own it works sometimes and then stops working! Sometimes the reboot does help, but just tried your suggestion of rebooting with wifi turned off and that did the trivk, but time will tell if it stops working or not.

on CF-ROOT XXJVO
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mammenj:
Disabling wifi before restarts works for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] felix-loesch:
I experienced the same for XXJVO, XXJVP, and XXJVQ. It clearly seems to be a problem of the CF-Root kernel and maybe the tweaks.

Has anyone contacted the guy releasing CF-Root to investigate this problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] felix-loesch:
I did some searching in the CF-Root thread.

There seem to be two possible solutions:

1. After reboot: always turn on BT once before turning on Wifi

2. Disable kernel scheduler in tweaks app

That worked for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] guijarrelson:
Same problema here, bluetooth activation not works for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] guijarrelson:
A posible fix could be in next CF-Root version:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] mk_ln:
so this issue is common, but does not necessarily affect all users that applied this method of rooting?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] diego3k:
the same thing to me, but with the Juwe's Smart Edition 5.0 (XXJVP), and the same solution, just turn the BT first after a reboot. I tryed the last version of Juwe's Smart Edition 5.2 (XXJVQ) and doesn't have a problem with BT... but i came back to J.S.E 5.0.... both have the Semaphore kernel.

I used to use CF-Root and i didn't have problems with BT on early versions.

PD:Sorry by my English :P

Hi, it's seem that i got luck...

Stock JVQ + CF ROOT+ EXT4 i just turn on bluetooth and wi-fi, bluetooth work fine (i tryed to send a jpg, work) then turn off bt e wifi, turn on again, same as before send image, work fine

last, turn off bt e wi-fi, turn on, make visibile e send a jpg from other phone to galaxy work fine

so?

[HTC Inspire 4G] Roland_D:
Hi guys... I put the Bubby's Stock ROM on my Inspire 4G right After I bought my phone a few month ago and then I ve lost track of everything... now what I would like to understand is what updates are currently available if I go back to stock???

I've heard about sideloading enabled by ATT and HUSPA enabled by HTC.. is this true?

So my question is if i go back to RUU stock will I get all this stuff and if yes can I download SuperUser and all that cool root stuff and just remove the bloat myself but keeping the updates from ATT???
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Or you can keep your rooted phone that already has sideloading enabled, flash the stock rooted rom that has the other radio-related updates included, available in the dev section, and save yourself the unnecessary trouble.... All those updates are available here without having to get them via ATT/htc.

Look for the ace Cingular rom by Attn1 in the dev section.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
There is no need to do that. Just flash the latest from here and you will remain rooted. It's the latest firmware and radio from AT&T. Make sure you choose the one that has sideloading enabled.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1058042
[HTC Inspire 4G] Roland_D:
Thank you so much guys.

One last question maybe dumb... If i flash this ROM over my stock what will I loose?
[HTC Inspire 4G] gmurphy0487:
It is going to wipe everything.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
This rom does a full wipe. You will lose everything that is on the phone. Sd card contents are safe. Contacts are most likely backed up to the HTC Sense server, but I would export them to the sd card anyways. Unless you have them in Google, then you should be good. Apps will need to be reinstalled.

then do Task29, then MagLdr, with the Correct partitions of the ROM your trying to flash. and make sure you read up on the rom your trying to flash. its partition size, its "working" and "not working," and whatever else is important to you.

First off: This is a Paid app so I will not Post the App its self, This is just a Guide to make Root Explorer Work with our Perma-Temp Root so you never Lose Root Access via Root Explorer!

You need to know how to use smali & able to resign apk's, I wont be covering a how-to for those steps..

Step 1.).. De-compile Root Explorer using smali

Step 2.).. Open the File CommandShell.smali located at > \smali\com\speedsoftware\rootexplorer\CommandShell.smali

Step 3.).. Find the Strings

const-string v8, "/system/xbin/su"

const-string v7, "/system/bin/su"

const-string v6, "/data/bin/su"

Step 4.).. We now change those string to match these

const-string v8, "/sbin/su"

const-string v7, "/vendor/bin/su"

const-string v6, "/system/bin/su"

Step 5.).. baksmali it & resign the apk

Step 6.).. Unistall the current version of Root Explorer

Step 7.).. Now we can install via adb install or off the sdcard

That's it.. Hope that helps everyone with Root Explorer!

Try the latest update and see if you still have the Root Explorer issues that required this mod in the first place.
