Sorry for late reply, i was revising for my national examination just now. I optimized ram some tweaks over launcher and used battery auto app so will pretty much do its own thing i also converted to ext4.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
ONE thing though, i'm still having that problem with the lock screen flashing when i unlock the phone (it's only present when some or all window animations are enabled)

i started having this issue when i decided to go from xxkpe to jpke1 (froyo) because xxkpe was causing problems. i encountered some bootloader (i guess?) trouble with jpke1 that made it lag a LOT so i went back to xxkpe and since going back to xxkpe, i've had this problem. i was kinda hoping that flashing xxkph would solve this problem, but apparently not

i wasn't using ANY mods on xxkpe and i'm certainly not using any on xxkph. clean kpe -> clean kph

can anybody help me with this? and excuse me in advance if this wasn't the right place for this post
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Perfectly fine, yes.

Just keep in mind that its JRummy's busybox (1.18.4) that worked this time. Stericson's doesn't install for some reason, has su permission issues. I've emailed him about it.

No. If you read my initial feedback, I said that I did a clean KPE flash and then went to KPH. Only thing is, to gain root, I had to go through old CWM+SOC+KPH normalboot.img and then flashed amit's KPH CWM.

All that KPE to KPH to old CWM to KPH normalboot caused a mess of a kernel and acted up on me later.

If you flash as per my reply to Jack above, you should be totally fine.

I didn't have amit's CWM when I first flashed and rooted using SOC, hence all the muckery! :p

Just do a clean reflash of KPE including pit and bootloader and then go to KPH as mentioned above.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] joealley:
We have the same understanding, i'm just going direct to the point instead of having to write the whole process down. :)

Edited: I was late in posting this. Only to know that spacebar has already replied to my query. :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] thedirtchamber:
Mine works fine, did everything in just a few minutes. I was on KPE, no deodex, no mods or other stuff, just root. Flashed the new firmware with Odin in Download mode, rebooted to see if everything is fine (and it was, except for the language change to Russian), then flashed the CF Root tar file like I did with the firmware. Again, no issues, except for an instant reboot when I pressed the home button on the phone. Didn't happen after that.

As for feedback, I really don't see much difference from KPE. Everything works, wi-fi, camera, bluetooth, video playback, 3g. I couldn't test the gps and the new drive & walk app yet, since I was inside my house, but I'll test it soon.

The Quadrant score is ~1250, and I also tried some other benchmark solutions but can't remember the scores now, I'll edit the post a little later.

Battery is fine, lasts at least a day with quite heavy usage (wi-fi, voice, some browsing, youtube and texting). That's pretty impressive for a smartphone with those specs. :)

I'll post some more if I ran into issues or find new stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Whoa, you just flashed and already know that the battery lasts a whole day with heavy usage? :p ;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] thedirtchamber:
I flashed it yesterday, not now, but I didn't write the feedback in the first 5 minutes of usage, it's pointless.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] saniauskis:
Maybe someone can test Sygic navigation if it is bugged like in KPE ?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jack_Random:
did a flash clean KPE (without latona) - flashed KPH as PDA - CF-Root over that one and works fine

although KPE seems to run smoother and quicker than KPH

and stuff that caused kernel panic in KPE is now rebooting KPH (adfree, fasterfix) lol

and can some1 please try VPN... can't get it to connect in KPH (worked fine in KPE)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] thedirtchamber:
Just noticed something. Account sync doesn't work, at least for now. On Google and FB accounts it says Sync error, and bellow there's "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly.". Can someone test this, just to see if it's my issue or a firmware issue? Thanks. :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jack_Random:
works fine for me (stock mail app & gmail, not using FB), try a reboot, usually fixes these issues
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vivekkalady:
Works fine For me Too
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jack_Random:
installing 1.18.4 worked but symlinking failed... that gonna pose a problem?

Hey look at my scores :eek:

It broke my phone :( Now I will be with hole in the right side

thanks to betoNL

and btw jjangjojo ,take a look at the post in my signature...i got 3427 w/o ext4 or any kernel
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] nitinvaid:
what battery mod or theme you are using
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
LMAO! Should have been 9000 so I could have quoted
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] falex007:
ask him
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jack_Random:
its called "photoshop CS5 mod"
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jaskiratsingh:
Yes...it's mentioned few posts before that there is still that black image as in kpe
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
didn't work

flashed to kpe with all the files, it didn't work then

flashed back to kph, doesn't work now

i would really rather have enough of this firmware flashing for until ICS, rebuilding my homescreens and losing app data is annoying. are there any other solutions? i was thinking of rooting my phone, so you can go down that avenue

what if i use ronhoover's 5 lockscreen mod? think that would work?

EDIT: now TwLauncher keeps force closing! why can't this flashing stuff ever work out for me? :@
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] nitinvaid:
i don't know what they have improved the

Sygic navigation is still buggey

Texture problem is same as in xxkpe

some games are not working .
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jack_Random:
my take would be that, since KPE mods and themes are working on KPH, they just fixed a couple of the remaining bugs, renamed KPH and released the thing
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] gmacev:
It's sad that they didn't fix the texture bug... Sygic nav is barely usable.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mzone1510:
Hey guys pardon me for asking but im on DDKB2 right now, and I've never flashed before so I don't wanna brick my phone so tell me what is the proper way to flash XXKPH? Should I flash according to this thread to I900XXKC1 and then flash to XXKPH using kies? That seems to be a safer method right? Or can I directly flash to XXKPH from DDKB2 using ODIN? I'm a bit confused about boot loaders and all that...

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] gmacev:
Yes. I upgraded from KC1 to KPH using kies.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] umarian:
its working with QQplayer
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
well, my crisis with TwLauncher is over, but the lockscreen thing is still there

(tip: don't use mybackup to restore android home. you're welcome :D)

i'm not familiar with the way 3rd party players work, but here's why this video won't play on stock player:

codecs supported by the phone are:

audio: MP3/WAV/eAAC+/AC3/FLAC

video: MP4/DivX/WMV/H.264/H.263

the codecs of your video are:

audio: AAC (in short)

video: AVC (in short)

so you can see why that video won't play.

try this: find an mkv video with those codecs (i have season 1 of boardwalk empire with AAC audio but AVC video) and play it on the player. i'll try finding one myself. but if you beat me to it, do post your feedback as i'm curious
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] kirankowshik:
Flash KPH as PDA..

Sorry for asking this question again..but do I need to select PHONE, MODEM and CSC also or flash the PDA file alone?? There were a lot of other posts where they only mentioned the PDA file..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] valedelu:
Guys my first quadrant score was 1571, now 1578:) I flash xxkph as PDA on the xxkpe with cf-root, all works fine...i will try .mkv videos...sorry bad english
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] lockmunk:

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] lockmunk:
just select I9003XXKPH_I9003XXKPH_I9003SERKPH_HOME.tar on PDA...but make sure u are currently using xxkpe firmware
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
I don't know where you're messing it up, or where its messing itself up, but in most cases, a clean reflash should do the trick. What's your current situation?

Btw, I'll post ronhoover's 5lockscreen mod with CRT and glow, modified for KPH in a few mins.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
@Panda, Do you ever factory reset? I hope you don't restore your system apps via TB
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mitoVonDido:
whoa..cool!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jack_Random:
installing jrummy's busybox 1.18.4 worked but symlinking it failed...

So now busybox installer recognises root but no busybox version, in TB i see that im running 1.18.4 though.

that gonna pose a problem deodexing etc?

And soz for repost but i guess original post was lost a few pages ago :(

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Here's the 5lockscreen+CRT+Glow+AOSP UI mod for XXKPH.

(I take absolutely no credit for this, its mostly ronhoover's work and all credit goes to him. My input is minimal.)

Remember, you have to be rooted (duh!), deodexed and "not stupid" to apply this mod. :p

- Unzip the file and you'll have two folders; App and Framework.

- Copy the folders to your int_SD and use a file manager with root access like Root Explorer or File Expert.

- Mount system as R/W.

- Copy the files in the App folder and paste them into /System/App. Overwrite the files when prompted.

- Mount system as R/O.

REBOOT.

- Now go back and mount system as R/W.

- Copy files from the Framework folder and paste them into /System/Framework. Overwrite when prompted.

- Mount system as R/O.

REBOOT.

Kaboom!

I've tested it and it works, so don't come back saying it doesn't. Rather look at where you screwed up and ask how to solve that.

Enjoy.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Same here, but does not cause any problems. cp while Deoxdexing went through fine, so it works.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jack_Random:
Yet again i owe you guys lots of thanks!

Sent from my GT-I9003
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
is this version based on deodexed xxkpe file or xxkph files??? And what is AOSP UI bro???
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
KPH files.

AOSP = Android Open Source Project = Stock GB UI.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ronhoover88:
@vishal its based on XXKPH!!

Why quote the whole post?!???!!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Tell me about it! LOL
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ronhoover88:
Lol...the theme goes well with the gingerbread launcher from the market by modaco:)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
It pretty well does indeed. :)

Btw, I'm on Black Chrome for GO EX. Looks sick along with the Nexus revamped LWP..! :D
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
sorry for quoting bro.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
@ spacebar

can u upload screenshots??? Everyone will get idea.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
I think everyone knows what stock GB UI, CRT effect and overscroll glow look like. There's no need of screenshots imo. But I can upload screen shots if people insist.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
like i said, i haven't the faintest idea what's going on with my lockscreen, but the TwLauncher force-closing was because i tried to restore android home with mybackup (at least as far as i know)...

...and i solved that force-closing problem by wiping the data and cache partition (same thing as factory reset, right?) in recovery mode

thanks a bunch for the mod, though i think i'm gonna take a break from this stuff for some time (looks i'll either have to try widgetlocker or go with no window animations till then). question, though, will the procedure of applying the mod erase my data? if so, then since i'll be rooted and using titanium backup at that time, does it back up the data in the apps as well? because like i said, i've had enough of losing my data and having to restore homescreens over and over again

EDIT: @misledz, pOnda, not pAnda!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
If you do it exactly as I've listed, you should have no issues at all.

No, it won't touch any of your data at all. Unless, of course, you mess up and and end up with a boot loop!

TB backs up app+data. And restore is up to you. You can choose to restore just app or just data or app+data. Never restore system apps. Data like contacts and calendar storage is okay, make sure you restore "only data" when restoring any system app data.

Btw, TW is a system app in a way, so restoring that can cause a mess.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] umarian:
thans man.its fine working.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
bro can u please upload only those files which gives crt effect+overscroll glow effect+5 lockscreen. I dont want AOSP look. I have downloaded ur zip file. Can u tell me which files should i replace from ur zip file so that i will get crt effect+overscroll glow effect+5 lockscreen only & not AOSP look???

Sorry I am giving u trouble bro.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Tarun.krthkr:
Yeah i tried it...it worked fine with mobo player in soft-decoding mode...but didnt work with the stock video player...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
ok, this is DEFINITELY not the right place for this, but i have one teensy question about xultimate: i found a zip file of xultimate 2.2.8, can i use it for deodexing? if so, how? the deodexing guides on xda imply that reader has some knowledge of xultimate, but i don't even know where to start the app

sorry for the irrelevant question, just answer it and we'll be done

Ponda LOL Sorry for the spelling errors. I forgot to mention again, If you restore GB data on froyo, you will get FC issues.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Just leave out the DialerTabActivity, MMS and Contacts when you copy apps to /System/Apps. But you'll still have the GB stock look on pop-ups and stuff. That's embedded in the framework files.

xUltimate is the most convenient and is pretty reliable too.

You're welcome. Just one thing though; did you really have to quote the whole post?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
Sorry for the killjoy feedback but I can't use this MOD for XXKPF nor any theme (Sensation Crysis Tripin, Neon GT) built for XXKPE without getting SODs. I never met this issue with the former versions for XXKB3 (at least with this MOD, Ultimate Green Tripin and Legend X tripin). I've flashed clean XXXKPE, clean XXKPF, clean CF-Root and I have deodexed also the cleanest way I could do :o

What wasn't too annoying with unofficial ROMs does become a little with this official and suppposed stable one. Anyway, I still can customize my phone easily with Go Laucher themes, but it's a pity that I have to stay away from those nice productions of our mates. Am I really the only one to get such issue? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
Thank you bro, I couldn't stand away from these last events so I took the train to flash immediately our new official ROM :D

Well, I also must admit that I had problems with my laptop's external hard drive, so I could'nt work as I intended to near the swimming pool... :(

EDIT : btw, happy birthday and congrats for your 1000th post! :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
That's rather strange. These files are from KPH and not KPE btw.

What are you using to replace the files?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
so no touchwiz?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
With XXKPE I was using adb shell. Now with XXKPF I'm using QtADB. I didn't manage to copy files with adb shell, neither with Stericson's or JRummy's busybox.

I don't use files with different firmwares from the one they are made for.

Maybe I should give more details. When I'm using those MODS or themes, I have random black screens, but sometimes it recovers by itself after a few seconds if I press power or home button. Then my phone goes directly to the lock screen and it does not immediately recognize my operator. There's another black screen and I have to wait again for a couple of seconds before it starts again, launching widgets and finding connection.

On other times, the phone won't recover and I have to pull out the battery in order to reboot it.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] soodgautam:
XXKPH (Not KPF)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
You're right ;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Using adb could have several issues if the drivers are in conflict or anything even remotely similar.

Just use terminal emulator on your phone or copy and paste manually. Just remember to mount as R/W when copying manually and changing back to R/O after copying.

Also reboot after copying apps and then copy framework files and reboot again.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
Thank you, I'll try this and let you know if it works.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
@Pralinos :D! Thanks for the greet :) I feel old now ;_;! And yeah, think I'm the highest in this section :P LOL

@space. Thanks for the kickass theme. Now my XXKPH doesn't feel as dry as it should. I am however anticipating Blockbuster's theme and the one rex used for his screenies. Me gusta!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
can we use xxkpe themes for xxkph??? I am not sure because files of xxkpe may be diffetent from xxkph...!!! I deodexed with xultimate.

@ spacebar

really thanx bro. Ur uploaded files works klike charm.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
Ok, I copied the files with File Expert, mounting and unmounting app and framework folders in two separate times, rebooting each time.

The result seems to be ok, at least it's perfectly good-looking. The only issue remaining is when I use additional options of the extended power menu (I tried reboot and recovery), then the phone still go back to black screen, and after pressing home and power buttons, to the lockscreen without connection to operator network. If I unlock, the phone starts working as already mentionned.

No issue from anyone else regarding these additional options?

Btw, could anyone tell me if there are specific files among the whole set that are involved in the working of these options, so that I try to copy them separately?

HELP me to Flash XXKPH

I have flashed XXKB3 previously...

some one help me to flash XXKBH now...

is it necessary to use PDA file from KBH while rest from KPE...?

disadvantages if i flash a clean XXKBH....???

i read a lot of pages from this post but with evryone talking about rooting, Im **** confused now...

can anyone link me steps for a safe n working KBH flash....
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
use mine!

just flash xxkpe using the usual 3 file method (if u need help with this, look for the flashing guide here om xda). then, download kph and you'll get a single .tar file. use this as pda and flash using odin

there is feedback on this thread if you dig through it, but one thing's for certain, it's better than xxkb3
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
i notice that, on the guide for rooting kph, the .tar file is from kpe

are you sure nothing will happen to my data? sorry if my hesistance is getting annoying
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] chipwizz:
Thank you friends...

XXKPH Feedback to I9003 Community..

What I did to get nice and shiny XXKPH

-Flashed XXKPE with Odin3

-Flashed XXKPH with Odin3

-Flashed GT-I9003_PDA-XXKPH-CF-Root-v1.0 with Odin3

-Deodexed using Deodx_XKPE.zip by leovitiaz with CWM

-Installed Touchwizz 4.5 by Fr4gg0r and Swiftwork :D

-Installed Black Android XXKPE.zip by vivekkalady using CWM (very nice theme)

Experience so far... (Approx.4 days)

-No lags, No Hangs, No Crashes and Smoother experience with TW4.5 ;)

-Better photos in low light, Better and louder audio

-quicker GPS fix

-changing LCD density is no issues

-V6_Supercharger_for_Android-Update8 script is working like a breeze

-Underclocking is ok (to save some power juice) :)

-thrill and satisfaction :D

All credit goes to numerous hours of hardwork that whole community has put in. Many thanks.:)

Few issues I have came across..

1. Visidon Applock V1.5 do not work well. Gets stuck while opening front camera and crashes. It was fine with XXKPE.

2. Myphoneexplorer (very good utility that I use to sync my office calendar, contacts and other stuffs) failed to recognize phone over USB. Its ok with Kies and was perfect till XXKPE. I am working on resolution.

3. Titanium Backup crashes (resulting reboot) if removed disposable stock apps (single as well as batch).

I used Check Fus Downloader Non-GUI tool to download stock rom directly from samsung server for my I9003-DDKB2 device. No need to use kies blotter .. :) Here obviously I got recent rom that is released in our region. But if you tweak command for product code and other parameters you can get any rom that is officially released by samsung for your device. For details refer -> How to download latest updates for I9003 from samsung without using Kies...

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
hm...with regards to my problem, do you think i could install the 5 lockscreen mod by flashing cf-root for xxkph (apparently, this roots the phone), using this (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1198193) method (simply installing that zip from the sd card) to deodex and then following spacebar's method of installing the mod?

i suppose the deodexing part hinges on cwm, it comes with cf-root, right?

if so, this seems like an easier, faster and - above all - safer way of doing things

EDIT: also, my data will still be safe right? at least after applying the cf-root (at which point i'll have to run out and grab titanium backup)?
