odin back

I went through the same issues this past Friday. I had upgraded to ICS v13 and could not for the life of me get GPS to work.

I crashed my phone trying to load bionix v1.3.1 from cwm 5.x. had to Odin back and install cwm, and then update to bionix's rom.

Should be easy once you get all the files and get your drivers installed and your phone into download mode.

Hi, I have strange problem. In some roms I can't access popular website with real webcam flash online video .For example [ROM]MiuiXt_Final_V2 optimize english. This is China rom. Is there any restrictions in accessing web and how can I disable them?

Thank you for your time!
[Milestone XT720 General] mchlbenner:
What browser are you iseing you should be able to change user agent.
[Milestone XT720 General] Mr.boo:
Any browser.Desktop user agent. The same restrictions when thetering. Ok, the website is w**.streamate.com. ( live porn webcam) No problems with Dexter's rom but with all others except miuifinal multilanguage rom.
[Milestone XT720 General] mediaon:
i think it's related with the chinese rom,coz china banned a lot of website Especially porn sites

but you can still access those with come proxy app such as GAEproxy

Hey guys,

so, a lot of my quetstions will be already posted, but i can´t find them all.

So i hope i annoy no one here ;-).

Ok, now to the important:

I have a SGS until 6 month. over the time i learnd a lot of android and i´m very lucky with them.

Then i heard from cyanogenmod. and all i read about it is great.

i have knowledges about root of linux an so of android.

So, during my research i have a lot of question before i flash my sgs:

- i found only one forum enty where i read i have to format all partitions.

So, how do i flash a sgs?

i have a modded boot rom with root and clockwork mod.

I tried a backup of the system.

the rom manager don´t show ne the cm7 mod for my device.

Do anyone know why? because the RC status?

When i get an error, how can i rollback my firmware with the backup?

Which pc software i need?

my plan ist to flash the sgs with the experimental version, no nightly build.

CWM makes al lot if IMG files. the cm7 zip has only one IMG.

So, i hope anyone can tell some or send my some nice links.

thanks a lot :-D

[Galaxy S I9000 General] ravn83:
Hey,

thanks guys.

So, can anyone explain me how i can go back to the original rom if i got any probs or even i want?

So, i made a backup with Titanium Backup (premium user) and secondly with CWM.

So, i copied them to my PC.

CWM makes some IMG files. So, how can i rollback them to my device?

Also if i try to create a rom image with the rom manager the recovery manager makes a error.

:-D

So, i get by saving my rom the following error:

-- Installing package ...

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

E: failed to verify whole-file signature

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted.

Why do the rom manager want to install a package by making an backup?

PS: i have the rooted bootloader: PDA_XXJVK_Sbl.tar installed.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bork84:
to revert back to you need to revert to a stock rom. using odin and a full PDA froyo will do the job.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ravn83:
Hey,

so u mean, i have to download the offical rom and install them over odin.

then i have to root them and install CWM and reverse the backup.

is that right?

yes.. that will be the proper way to do it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aydc:
From their viewpoint, why should there be a changelog? 99% of users don't care. They either use the phone exactly as they bought it, or connect to Kies once a year and if an update is there, they just click OK and think newer is better.

They can't release changelogs for people like us, which is a very very small percentage of users, expecially for leaked ROMs which we are not supposed to be using anyway.

So to keep it short, if you expect a changelog, don't hold your breath.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stylzjhn:
To fix the flash problem. You have to reflash with PIT and repartition.

I had the same flash problem till i did that. I have double checked it. flash without PIT/Repartition and the flash problem came back.

I still have the pink spot, but its somewhat reduced.

As for the battery, its great. I barely lost any battery when i went to bed.

Just to clarify to those that 'think' they have a battery bug. I don't think its a bug. Android OS has to always be running. Its Phone Idle in other words. If you don't touch your phone, then the OS will be using most of the battery, hence the HIGH PERCENTAGE.

If i got 90% battery left. That means that i lost 10%. Out of that 10%, the battery stats shows what has used that 10% that has been lost (Everything in the battery stats should add up to 100%). So if i used my phone constantly, and i lost 10% battery. Then the battery stats shows 'Display' at about 50% meaning out of the 10% battery that was lost 50% of it was because of the screen. But if i let my phone idle and it lost 10% battery. Then Android OS will be at about 50%.

If you use your phone heaps, your ADROID OS % will be small. If you barely touch your phone it will be HIGH.

My phone barely loses battery life when i let it idle, but i do have the HIGH % ANDROID OS when i do that. But if i use the phone heaps i only get 5% Android OS.

I have used KG1/KG2/KG3 and i havn't had any problems with any of them. Except for when i flashed KG2 without repartitioning and it gave me FC's in the brower after viewing flash.

You only need to do it if you have the flash problem, if you don't then you wont need too repartition/pit.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelomaldito:
I did the gsmarena.com test and I can confirm that although I don't get a FC, when I hit a flash banner it says "Web page not available". I'm able to download from hotfile, although didn't try multiupload.com yet. For me it seems to be more a browser issue than a firmware issue. Therefore, KG3 is not to be blamed, but the stock browser, which could be upgraded without upgrading the firmware.

One thing I've learnt regarding FC issues, is that is better to completely wipe your phone *before* upgrading your firmware. There are a few handy tools for doing a back up of your data such as Titanium backup and other similar apps, especially setting your google account to back up everything, including apps downloaded from the android market. Always that I upgraded without a complete wipe I got one or two FC issues (when I upgraded to KE7 for example, I got a FC whenever I tried to access my call logs, than I did a factory reset and flashed the same KE7 again and didn't had any issue afterwards). Since I began to wipe before upgrading, I had no more FC issues, yet at least :D
