I'm sorry but I don't understand what exactly the problem is. Are you saying there is a lag when you use the extended menu to reboot or reboot into recovery? Or are you saying it fails and doesn't work?

Could you explain again? Also, did you factory reset after you flashed the XXKPH CF_ROOT?

There's no need for that anymore now. Just use the XXKPH CF_ROOT as PDA, install JRummy's Busybox (1.18.4 and not 1.19) and proceed to deodexing.

And NO, you will not lose any data as your data partition is not touched by any of this.

Just make sure you keep your eyes and mind wide open when you deodex. One error could send you back to the dawn of flashing time.. :p

LMAO... as unfortunate as that is, I couldn't have said it any better myself!

Yes, its called CF_ROOT because it roots the device and installs CWM. ;)

I'd suggest you do not use that .zip for deodexing XXKPH. Use xUltimate v2.8 instead. Its safe, sure and fairly easy. Its pretty self-explanatory. There are more than one posts on here about the instructions of it anyway.

Install the mod as said after you've completed deodexing and rebooted.

And no, if you do this correctly, you won't end up in a bootloop and hence you won't lose any data! Just TB your apps and data and save the folder on your PC for the worst case scenario.

@Chipwizz - Feedback added to 2nd post. :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
not to sound over-smart, but can you elaborate on why you would advise against that zip? the thread has positive feedback (once they found out how to mount /system)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Umm.. because that .zip was made for KPE! Would you want possible niggly little issues later?

Just use xUltimate and do a sure shot job! Why play with probability when you don't need to? :p
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
oh darn!

well, thanks for the warning

rooted my phone without a hitch with cf root (well, my phone rebooted itself once, but it's happening to everyone). kinda late, so i'll deodex using xultimate and apply the mod in the morning

since rooting, i've noticed lag in the app drawer pinch zoom out
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jjangjojo:
I hope I won't brick my phone from a power failure or anything like tat again. The last time I flashed xxkpe the battery was loose and the phone got bricked. Man, was that an experience.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Oh well, ODIN's served everyone better than KIES. Not just you! :p

I'm not sure how many here even use KIES for anything. I don't use it at all. Its just there for "maybe I'd need it for something someday".
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jamsori:
+1 to that. It's really a memory hog too - was using 200mb at idle on my computer. Probably something wrong with that anyways. :(

@ephraim

be careful of the industry you are entering. I've been in the industry for 7 years now and it's tempting to earn that much.

Going back to the ROM, is it better, faster, stronger? (that's a son right?)

Please provide feedback asap. the problem is theming again. no themes for the time being. oh well.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
And I hope you won't come back here with your pointless gibberish again! :mad:

I was having a short conversation in the huddle room with navneet, about flashing namarom. i clicked the download for r21.. just then this one pops out of my tweetcaster! I would have made the thread myself, but I had to start cooking pasta. hahaha.

Can't wait till I am free to download this one. I hope it will be stable!

Any improvement compare to XXKPE ? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ricky886:
I have a problem. In the .rar only has one file no 4 file...

If i use odin3 to flash it, i need to put the tar to (PDA or PHONE)?

sorry for me bad english;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jcbalunsat:
Dunno what to say now. :confused:

Well going back, have your tried the ROM yet? How is it?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jjangjojo:
Oh damn. I got a quadrant of 3000+ on XXKPH. Will posts screenshots once I am able to use computer again.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ronhoover88:
First of all you have to be on XXKPE then flash to XXKPH selecting the downloaded file in PDA
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
ok, at first i accidentally installed busybox 1.19. i got rid of that and installed the version you said. now busybox installer says WHERE i installed but gives version N/A. what gives?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jack_Random:
having the same issue (so does spacebar) but it works nontheless...

if you read the message you are getting after installing busybox it tells you busybox was installed properly but symlinking BB applets failed. if you go check Titanium Backup it tells you the busybox verion you have installed (which should be 1.18.4)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ephraim:
Is it just me or the reboot option and recovery mode in the extended power menu doesn't work?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
That's right. It works nonetheless. I'd like to point out one thing here though - TB has its own version of Busybox that comes with it. Its not dependent on system Busybox. You can change the default to use your system's Busybox but yeah, it has its own optimized version built in.

It does work. Takes a while though, which might lead you to think it doesn't work, but it does.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
Actually, Ephraim has a point aswell. The recovery buttons don't work :\ Download,Recovery, I tried them earlier and they seemed to hang the phone. Funny part was it hung for 20 secs and the clock was still running alive in the background.

On another note, The nandroid backup on XXKPH is damned fast compared to the nandroid backup done by XXKPE CF-Root which is damned slow. What changed?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Both download and recovery working here. Takes a lot longer than usual but works.

Well, the kernel maybe!?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mitoVonDido:
Me doesn't work also reboot n recovery..when pressed it doesn't reboot instead hang n back to the lockscreen
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
It doesn't hang, its a silent reboot (fast reboot). Or that's what I think it is as the system appears like just after a reboot. Memory is over 260 free and widgets reload.

Download mode does NOT work indeed, I just tried. :/
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
:P I was aware the kernel changed with the new release of XXKPH, But the CWM of Skin, The latest update he created last night, Seem's to have changed something, The kernel remains the same as the normalboot.img from XXKPH, but there are changes that I can't seem to figure out :\.

Since were all getting the same error :P I hope the files will be updated by ron soon :P
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mitoVonDido:
Btw I didn't use skin's latest cwm update, but using cf-root by amit..lets pray somebody will fix it asap. for now i'm juz use quick boot app :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
Skins CWM seem's to be stable, Is it the same compared with amit's release?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Skin's CWM is "CWM only" without any extras.

Amit's was CWM with CF_ROOT, Kernel Tweaks, Juwe's ramscript etc.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
i am using amit's cf root. I think thst is also stable with tweaks & pre root available in it.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
No chief, I meant if there's an instability in the release of amit's CFRoot, Have you experienced any issues? I never got to experiment with it, It got pulled out before I got my hands dirtied with it.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
if u want that then i will mail u cf root of amit on ue email id bro.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jack_Random:
seems to have basically same issues as skins KPE CF-Root in KPE...

certain root dependant widgets/apps dont work (they used to create kernel panic, now they restart the phone)

CWM mangager, when first using, creates a reboot without anything being done, works afterwards though

all in all though i have to say that KPE w skin's CF ran smoother and faster than amit's CF

apart from that i fail to see any big differences

thats from my noob perspective though :D

and yeah, you want amits version, send me a pm :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] theasters:
I am using amit's cf root withot any problem (for the moment).
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mitoVonDido:
Amit cf-root version working juz fine..used it for almost 2 days. Enabled all tweaks except gov n stagefright. Launcher feel pretty smooth same as xxkpe version(I dont use touchwiz launcher bcause every mod i use will lag on it, so non sense to base on it :p )cwm bckup n restore works, pre root etc
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] marselcj:
I've flashed XXKPH too, and I'm very dissapointed!

1.GoogleMail still doesn't sync if I don't use it for a while. For example, in the night, does not sync any mail. Or, if I don't use the phone for a long period on the day, the same issue: does not receive any mails! If I "refresh" the inbox, after that I receive all mails. And than, it stops again. I had this problem on XXKPE too, and I went back to Froyo.

2. The battery drains like crazy. In the night I lost 30-40%. I 've attached a screenpicture. I didn't use "maps" at all, so why is using the battery? Android OS12%???? Isn't too much??

Thanks for the answers!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
like i said, last night i successfully rooted my phone. installed the version of busybox you told me to

i followed two guides on this forum: one was misledz's and i've forgotten who made the other one (it was one of the guides Pralinos posted earlier). followed the guides to the dot (that is unless there IS a difference between debug and mass storage; even if i plug the usb with debugging mode checked, it behaves the same way as when in mass storage), deodexed my own files AND tried misledz's, and i got boot loops each time. had to reflash xxkph, luckily my data was safe and all i had to was flash cf root to be rooted again

i suppose i should also mention that i used the ADB file that comes with superoneclick, as was stated in the first guide i used (but not misledz's; could that be the problem?)

help?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
I also accept that. When i use data connection battery drains faster as compared to xxkb3.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
We should get on Teamviewer sometime. I'm going to make sure you do it over from scratch so to avoid issues. Let me know a time/date and we'll set something up. It's a date.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Fast and smooth has got nothing to do with CWM! Its just a recovery module..

The tweaks included work or don't work depending on the kernel. Amit's KPH CF_ROOT was based on Skin's KPE CF_ROOT. Slight changes in kernel could be the reason for the issues. That said, I don't have any major gripes with Amit's CF_ROOT (yet).
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jack_Random:
1. GoogleMail sync works fine! A reboot every 2-3 days fixes the stop syncin issue you are describing on gmail and stock mail app. and i had the very same issue on all 3-4 froyo FW's i have used as well as on KPE and now KPH

2. maps keeps running in the background also on all FW's i have used (doesnt show in stock task manager but shows in advanced task manager and other market task managers. maps doesnt use much battery though.

besides that, battery runs fine for me, 8h standby with wifi on used like 5% battery,

just keep a close eye on running processes and running apps, keep these at a minimum and you should do fine... stop processes that are not needed like processes from apps you installed (skype for example is a celebrity when it comes to draining battery on backgroundservices)

also, as was mentioned MANY times in this forum, drain your battery to 0 (let the phone shut itself off) then charge it to full, turn phone on, reboot and charge again to 100% and your battery issue should be fixed

dont use anything like "juicedefender" etc, they dont help much and also drain battery

my apologies

as i said... skins KPE CF had same issues as amits KPH (reboots when using some root apps/widgets now, kernel panic before)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
no offense, but that seems a little unnecessary. i've detailed what i did, all you have to do is tell me what i'm doing wrong. i suppose i should also mention that:

cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/

cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework/

when i put the space after the asterisk ('* '), it says the path specified doesn't exist, so both times i did it without the space and process went through. basically, what i wrote was this:

cp /sdcard/done_app/*/system/app/

cp /sdcard/done_frame/*/system/framework/
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
Did you try this method : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1194585

That one worked for me.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
There was a space after the asterisk in some instruction? :eek: That's criminal!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jack_Random:
1. the mass storage thingo when connecting debugging mode is no problem, having same, deodexing worked

2. sorry, if that sounds dumb now but did you place done_frame and done_app on your internal sd where it belongs, directly on sd, without placing them in another folder?

3. issue might as well be that you dont have needed java installed (screwed me once, you need at least java 6)

4. after pressing enter after typing "adb shell" does it say demon started successfully?

5. yes, need space after *
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
He wouldn't get until "cp" if his adb and Java runtime were not up to scratch.

Also, what many people do not realize is that you have to wait after every command line for the execution to complete and return the # symbol.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
actually, no i didn't. guess i'll have to look into it. i was going to, actually, but that method's for kpe, no?

is it?

yes, i pasted the folders directly into the sd card

that might have something to do with it, i just downloaded jdk 7

i get this message:

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

and if that space is necessary, why doesn't it work for me? those files are there on the sd card, but it says the path doesn't exist (or words to that effect)

do you mean something like this?

#

# reboot

reboot

#

because that's how i was getting it
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
It fails and doesn't work. But you're right, I didn't factory reset after I flashed CF-Root. That may be one of the points, another one being slight changes to XXKPH kernel as you mentionned later... anyway, I'll wait for Skin's CF-Root release before I'll flash all the stuff again, unless Ron releases himself a new version of his MOD, in that case I try it immediately! Thanks for your help and thanks to other mates who gave their own feebdbacks.

So here is what I had, a fast, silent reboot (without the Samsung logo).
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
Ooh you're right, I didn't even notice that!

EDIT : I read too quickly and misunderstood your comment. I always did cp command with a space before the target path. It is in Krazy's thread instructions (given also by Trip) and it used to work every time for me before I flashed XXKPH.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
That's whats supposed to happen bro in XXKPH the extended power menu is glitched. Only the ones from stock, Shutdown, etc, they work.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
I had the same issue, that's why I used QtADB.

Yes, it's like this it must look between each line you're entering.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
ok, gonna try qtadb (the method suggested by pralinos) now. lets hope it works
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
Well, I feel relieved to read that. Anyway, Spacebar's instruction helped me to have the less bugged MOD/theme on my phone since the beginning of this month :)

Can you guys use the android policy.jar and framework.jar from the 5 locks mod of XXKPE and see if the extended power menu works?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
guys, before i drop some very annoying news on you all, i would like to extend my humblest and sincerest gratitude. i've used the zip method, and deodexed correctly and applied the mod. i actually really like the nexus s-style interface (i have a minor crush on that phone because of it) and the lockscreens are working and crt/overscroll glow are working. and of course, thanks for dealing with my utter noob-ishness; hopefully this experience will allow me to help others (i know, i'm sounding really mushy right now, but seriously, thank you all)

now, for the annoying news...wait for it...wait for it...

my lockscreen problem (flashes while unlocking) persists! it's SIGNIFICANTLY less pronounced though, almost looks natural...i might get used to it
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
one more question (hopefully; i'll obviously be back if there are any issues in the long run), there's this icon that says '50' between the wifi signal and clock, what is that? and, just in case, how can i turn it off?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mwazeer1:
After flash xxkph stock from samfirmware without rootimg phone. I feel touchscreen lag as compare to xxkpe. Any body notice and what solution.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
That sir, Is your battery percentage :P, It's part of the theme. And yes I had a huge crush on the nexus cause of it's CRT :)

@mwazeer, It works fine, Only your having this issue. You may want to reflash and refer to a guide. Preferably one underneath my signature for best results.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
can i change those icons? and on a broader scale, can i apply themes on top of this mod? (just following the guides as if i had no mods)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] thedirtchamber:
Hey guys, did you check your IMEI after flashing this firmware? I was searching for something and went to this thread and ended up talking about IMEI: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1089874&page=12

Mine is changed from the original one, but I'm really not sure if this happened after XXKPH, or KPE or KP9. The new IMEI is 004999010640000, and it seems to be common for many people. However, everything works on my phone, so I don't think it's such a big issue. But I'm asking you, just to be sure, if this is (or will be) a problem or not.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
Just installed android.policy.jar and framework.jar from your 5 locks mod of XXKPE (v2.1) on my XXKPH firmware and tested the extended power menu.

Reboot : OK

Recovery : OK

Download : OK

Thank you Ron. But shouldn't I care about side effects on the firmware? What are these files used for?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] joealley:
Mine is the same as before. That's why i made a copy of my efs folder a few days ago. Then just today i learned that just copying the efs folder is not enough or might create a problem when reinstalling it. So i made another backup through Terminal Emulator just to be sure. :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] chipwizz:
Thanks Space... I feel honoured. Will be always more than happy to do my bit.

There wouldn't be any side effects i'm sure...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Pralinos:
You're right, I also have this IMEI number. And it changed quite a long time ago, because my efs back up contains the same IMEI...

I need to first revert to XXKB3 from XXKPE ( as i am on XXKPE).... ( install with ODIN as per the procedure in the XXKB3 Post )...

then i install DDKF1 - ( this being a single file i only flash the PDA file (Uncheck Re-Partition!) . in this case i just select the PDA file and click start button...

Please correct me if i am wrong....

thnx
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ronhoover88:
Yeah thats right!! to be on the safe side hard reset after each flash that is dial *2767*3855# after your phone boots and reaches homescreen

Note: you would lose data

Sarcasm is rampant nowadays. I tried this rom but without ext4, speed would be a big issue. Also, getting into the nitty gritty of rooting and all would be a hassle as space said. Nothing really new on this rom. Still sticking with kpe for the time being since its faster.

@dirtychamber :

Ok, I have the same IMEI as you when entering *#06# with dialer.

But when i go to settings > about phone > status, I find my original IMEI number.

Check if you have the same thing.

@all :

How can it be so? With which IMEI number is my phone actually registered? :eek:

Also : when I'm opening efs/imei/mps_cod.dat, I have "KOR" written.

Does it mean "Korea" or "Korean"? Shouldn't it be something like "FR", "FRE" or "FRA"?

Do I have to change it?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
Yeah, I just realized, Isn't an IMEI supposed to be specific per phone? Doesn't that mean if you registered a lost phone, It would like, Call the whole world? -.-
