Great and THANKS! I have the droid digger on now ... odin is performing 'file analysis'.

I'm guessing this takes a bit of time.
[Fascinate Android Development] karmatose:
LOL.. Couldn't tell ya. I did mine yesterday afternoon and that seems like ages ago. Heck, I can't remember what I had for breakfast.

Kids, don't do drugs. ;)
[Fascinate Android Development] jpmccarthy:
LOL - I tend to be a bit impatient which causes more problems than not. Odin is still 'File Analysis' so seems to be taking a bit ... not sure how long flashing the speedmod kernel itself should take.
[Fascinate Android Development] jpmccarthy:
No - I was doing something wrong - tried it again from the start and it was super fast applying the changes - and now ROOTED. Thanks so much for the help!!!
[Fascinate Android Development] tenthousandfeet:
Thanks for this!

By the way, how did you get the kernel? Do you also have the stock rom to flash with odin? Might be useful.
[Fascinate Android Development] koocheese:
read the first post, both download links are there.

thanks for the image karmatose, i kept on putting the tar file in the phone box.

this method works perfectly.

Has anyone gotten cwm recovery working?
[Fascinate Android Development] tenthousandfeet:
I tried flashing it from rom manager but the stock recovery wouldn't take the unsigned update.zip.
[Fascinate Android Development] tenthousandfeet:
I'm looking for a flashable gingerbread, not just the kernel.
[Fascinate Android Development] jpmccarthy:
Same.
[Fascinate Android Development] MrManiacNF:
did the fascinate come up in the list for you in rom manager, cause it don't for me.

I was thinking, I have the zip file that rom manager downloads when I was on froyo, I was going to take the recovery.bin from it, make a odin flashable file and try it out. But I'm afraid too.

is the recovery specific to the rom you're using. I'm on stock gingerbread now. The zip is for froyo.

Another thing I was thinking is simply replacing the stock recovery.bin with the CWM one inside the zip file. Either using root explorer, or adb.

Here are the instructions I found

adb push c:\flash_image /sdcard/

adb push c:\recovery.img /sdcard/

adb shell

su

mount -o remount, rw /system

cp /sdcard/flash_image /system/bin

cd /system/bin

chmod 777 flash_image

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

I don't know if this will work.

Edit: One thing I did do when I had the speedmod kernel flashed for rooting, I made a backup. So I guess something I could do is try this out, and if it don't work I could flash the speedmod kernel, restore the backup, and then stock kernel again. That sound like something that should work??
[Fascinate Android Development] jpmccarthy:
No the phone was listed but I thought I would try i9000 since its similar to ours - but to no avail. Not really that shocking - I could not get CWM on my phone previously using ROM manager - it said it worked, but didn't. I instead used lagfix which then got CWM on - like you I"m wondering if the update.zip from Froyo would work - I could try that using SGS Flasher maybe.
[Fascinate Android Development] MrManiacNF:
I was wondering this as well, OP, How did you get the stock kernel from the phone without first getting root access?

[Fascinate Android Development] Demetris:
Hi,

anyone here able to help me locate a standalone T959TLKG2 modem.bin since you now have root?

adb shell

su

cat /dev/block/bml12 > /sdcard/modem.bin

Modem.bin should be on your sdcard and 12,0 MB (12.582.912 bytes) when right click and select properties on it. It takes 3 seconds from start to finish to dump the modem, once you have adb shell working.

Thanks in advance

P.s

If anyone knows how to dump the gps driver off this rom would be breaking news over the Vibrant forums as we need the driver to push it to cyanogen mod.

Fascinate 3g+ and Vibrant are the same specs just rebranded so the drivers will work just fine ;)

[Fascinate Android Development] Demetris:
Mr/Ms harimgs do you mind posting this rom over to Vibrant Forum for a peek from our rom devs?
[Fascinate Android Development] MrManiacNF:
I've done this, I'm getting a modem.bin 12.5 MB (13,107,200 bytes), when I check those size on the froyo modem, JL3, it's the size you state, right to the byte. Is it possible the GB modem is bigger, or it not in BML12 anymore?
[Fascinate Android Development] Demetris:
Modem.bin is the same size and BML12 stays as the modem partition :)

You are doing something wrong but anyway i got the modem.bin from the harimgs Rom link, thanks
[Fascinate Android Development] MrManiacNF:
I want to figure this out, if you happen to flash the rom, and you rip the modem, and the size is 12.5, plz confirm with me so I can make my odin backup.

I've tried gettiing the modem using the cat command, as well as dd=/of= bs=4096 command... both give me exactly the same file.

Anyways, at least you got the file.

[Fascinate Android Development] mxpxboi:
Will this work on the 3G+? I assume it's the same exactly phone except with the faster download speeds?
[Fascinate Android Development] :
What do you mean??? you mean 4g?
[Fascinate Android Development] :
Any version of speedmod and odin. And can you search the forum before you ask?
[Fascinate Android Development] a2000rick:
ok it worked, thanks. Just asked for the download link incase it was a specific version of odin. I used speed mode version K15I-T10 and odin3 v1.7 btw.

did anyone get a gps test secret code to work with 2.3.3?
[Fascinate Android Development] keroma:
I got this phone 2 days ago from TELUS.

And trying to root it with 2.3.3 that i just updated from kies.

I used odin3 v1.83 + speedmod-kernel-k15i-t10.tar.

It flashed successful.

But it keep restarting at the beginning. It shown "I9000" logo and "Sgh-t959D" logo. But it cannot boot to the system.

So i used odin3 v1.83 + T959TLKG2_Kernel.tar flash it again. (I tried the file in PDA and bootloader)

It flashed successful also.

But this time, i can boot to the system.

And i installed superuser app on my phone. It said i didn't root my phone yet.

So i guess it doesn't work.

Anyone can tell me which step i do wrong? I tried few times already, but same result. Cannot root the system.

Thank you

P.S. I don't understand how to do this>> 4: go to speedmod advanced option menu - how can i go to the menu? Do i need to press any button?
[Fascinate Android Development] a2000rick:
that P.S. is your problem.

after you flash the speedmod kernel, unplug the phone and turn it off. now hold down volume up and down, and then while still holding vol up and down, hold down the power button. continue to hold all 3 buttons until you see a green menu. use the volume buttons to navigate to speedmod advanced menu. use the power button make a selection. choose to root. then go back to the initial menu and select to reboot into download mode. now flash the stock kernel back using odin
[Fascinate Android Development] keroma:
I solved the problem by>>>[vol up & down + power button] get into recovery mode.

I didn't know >vol up & down< is hole 2 buttons together.

Thank you so much!
[Fascinate Android Development] mxpxboi:
Yeah, 3G+ / 4G, will it work? I was looking at this screen shot

http://mobilesyrup.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/fascinate233.jpg

and it shows the same kernel, so I assume it should work.

Although, how can you tell by looking at that photo that it's the new model and not the old?
[Fascinate Android Development] mxpxboi:
Well it worked on the 3G+ just so people know. Is there anyway to get Clockworkmod Recovery on here with Gingerbread?
[Fascinate Android Development] iwebsource:
Also been wondering the samething. I don't think anyone has figured out a way to get CWM installed yet.

There is a temporary work around by installing the speedmod kernel, then booting into CWM and making a nandroid back up. Once done, flash the stock 2.3 3 Gingerbread kernel back. At least this way you still have a backup. :-(

No service- error while flashing

This being the first time I've tried to use odin when I tried to flash the speedmod kernel I did it using the phone option. After realizing that was a mistake I restarted, and flashed using the PDA option for both kernels and obtaining root from the recovery. The root works great, unfortunately I've lost all network service. Probably when I flash the kernel using the phone option i flash over the radio settings. How do I fix/repair this?? It won't even let me connect using kies.

Thanks in advance,

Vic

Update: while googling around I came across this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=923712

Using the posted stock froyo files I was able to reset my phone to stock with odin, upgrade to ginger with kies, then properly apply this root and use titanium to restore my apps and stuff. Took a while but I learned a bit. Also found a link for just the modem file while waiting for the flashing, in case I do this again...

Cheers! :)

reboot loop no dl or recovery mode

Hi all,

I just did 2 phones for my folks, the first one was on 2.3.3 and went successfully. What I didn't know was the second phone was still on 2.2. I flashed the speedmod kernel and went to go into recovery but no go.

Now the phone is in a reboot loop and only gets as far as the samsung SGH-T959D splash screen then reboots.

I can't get into recovery or download mode. It seems that I can almost get into dl mode, it displays the circular / spinner icon instead of the splash screen. If I keep trying Odin seems to detect the phone, shows com port yellow highlighted. I goto flash 2.2 kernel and it starts to work but hangs on setting up connection.

Any Ideas? Thanks for your time.

---------- Post added at 05:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:17 PM ----------

Update:

I got it into dl mode using a trick I found in another thread, pwr-vup/vdown remove pwr when screen goes black. bingo.

Now I need to find the stock telus 2.2.x kernel to flash, then upgrade to 2.3.3 with kies, then do this whole process again on this phone.

Is the 2.2 stock kernel available?
[Fascinate Android Development] wileyvic:
If you follow the link I posted a few back it has the whole telus 2.2 rom in one archive. Just download it, unpack and flash using odin. Then use kies to up the phone to 2.3 and apply this root method. Good luck.

[Fascinate Android Development] HockeyDadNinja:
Thanks, trying to figure out what file is the kernel there, in one of the .tar.md5 files (WTF md5?), I renamed it to .tar, opened it, there's a zImage. Can I put zImage into the PDA section of Odin and flash, or do I need to push it with adb (which I'm not sure I can do in dl mode).
[Fascinate Android Development] wileyvic:
If you read the step below the link to download the rom it lists what each file is. They don't need repacking or renaming.

Sent from my SGH-T959D
[Fascinate Android Development] wileyvic:
Not sure how you would flash just the kernel though. I would just flash all the files. Unfortunately that also factory resets the phone so data and settings are lost if you have no backups. The internal sd keeps all it's files though. Also if you are leaving this phone at 2.2 then just use the superoneclick in step 3 of that post. Hope that helps.

Not sure if anyone else had this problem, but after using this procedure to root my phone, whenever I updated the su binary I would lose root.

Hey I have an interesting situation - flashing went great, rooting went great, etc...

Aside from being annoying as hell? no. Well, to be exact unless the new one is installed I can't access the superuser list to approve or deny any apps. The old one will force close. In practice though all the apps retain their SU rights after the initial approval.

Also, sorry it took so long to get back to you - Christmas season is busy and all of that.

I was thinking titanium backup might be able to help, but it won't list superuser as an app. :P

Any ideas?
[Fascinate Android Development] jpmccarthy:
I have never experienced the problem you have but I think I might need more information.

This thread is for rooting only - but you noted flashing - was that just slashing the speedmod kernel, rooting, and then flashing back to stock?

It has been a VERY long time since I have done - since this thread I moved on to Darky's 10.2, then 10.2.2, then JVS, then JVT, then Miui (I'm about 4 ROMs flashed in the Miui world).

If you are executing the steps in this thread verbatim, perhaps checking to see if there's an updated speedmod kernel (or even anything updated on rooting 2.3 gingerbread - although I don't think there is).

You may want to think about dropping back to 2.2 or 2.1, and flashing a net new ROM.

:)

EDIT: No worries on the delay - I hear ya - I have played VERY little with my phone as of late, and even less with my new tablet. :)

Hey guys, I work for Best Buy and I thought I would post here just to give anyone who cares a little bit of an update. As of this morning, we were told to pull all the HP product and ship it back. Then, we got an email (not sure if it was just our district or not) that said we could sell them for $99 and $149 respectively! So we did, the 16GBs sold within 2 minutes and the ~20 or so 32GBs we had were gone in less than 15 mins. What kinda sucked was that I wanted one, but you couldn't buy them if you were on the clock :( When we were notified that we could sell them around 4:45PM, as many employees that could took their lunch and bought them and the employees that were leaving at 5PM bought the last of them.

As of right now, we aren't supposed to get any other stock in and any shipments we would have had are getting sent back to HP. We (Best Buy) has a very good relationship with HP so they don't have a problem taking them back and selling them.

Some stores may not have gotten the notification that they can sell their remaining stock yet, but hopefully they did. You may have a hard time finding one, but good luck! If you guys have any questions on this, I will try to answer as best as I can.

[General Topics] MartyLK:
I tell ya...it's been a pretty convoluted event with this Best Buy B.S. At one moment they say they will ship all TPs back to HP and then the next moment they are selling them off. I actually got one yesterday morning for the full price and waiting for it to go on sale. Then Best Buy reports they won't go on sale. So I return mine for a refund yesterday after the report. The people at the store confirm they won't go on sale too. Then today they go on sale and are already sold out.

That's BB for you.
[General Topics] -viperboy-:
Well I have the Transformer now bug would love a Touchpad, my dad bought one but he doesn't know if he wants to keep it or not so I will take it off his hands if he doesn't. I tried to but one yesterday but you had to be off the clock which sucked.

Yes it was screwed up. They are sending the rest back but they were under a lot of pressure to sell what they had in stock. Even worse is that if you bought it from BB before the price drop, they won't match it. And our store told us that people could not return them if they bought them at the sale price.

[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
Are you using the kernel that comes with the ROM? Or are you using a custom kernel?
[HTC EVO 3D] bslim11:
That I dont know, how do I check that? I am still pretty new to rooting(I still cant believe I pulled it off without unrevoked haha) so I dont quite get kernals
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
Well you'd know if you were using a custom kernel, because you'd have needed to flash it separately and independently from the ROM. So if you don't recall doing that, then surely you're just on whatever kernel came with the ROM. The reason I was asking is because if you use a kernel that was for 2.3.3 on a 2.3.4 rom, it will indeed break your wifi and 4g until you went back to proper kernel. Other than that, I'm really unsure what is causing your problem.
[HTC EVO 3D] bslim11:
You know what, I think you are right. Both the ROMS are 2.3.3 and my phone is 2.3.4. Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it

[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
It probably won't have the new update on it....however...if you let the best buy tech activate your phone for you, they'll most likely hit the 'accept update' button or whatever....so it will be up to you to not allow him to do that. Don't even let him hold your phone, tell him you'll handle it all yourself, lol. Activation and all. I hate how they always accept the updates when they activate.
