I flashed it and it seems to work. I am testing it right now with Titanium Backup.

Zainstalowany, wszystko działa, aplikacje zainstalowane zostały, konfiguracja systemu również. Jest root. W końcu nie ma problemu z szybkim zapełnieniem wbudowanej karty dzięki aplikacji "gl to sd". Po zainstalowaniu Romu straciłem również poza polskim interfejsem (angielski też lubię) polskie litery w swype, ale wystarczyło odinstalować swype AN i zainstalować najnowszą z PL.

Installed, everything works. Applications are installed, the system configuration. Is the root. Finally, there is no problem with quick fill adapter with built-in applications, "gl sd it." After installing the Rom also lost outside the Polish interface (English or like) Polish letters in the Swype, but it was enough to uninstall Swype AN and install the latest from the PL.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
edit edit :)

BTW. I rooted yesterday, and su works like a charm, but honestly I cannot even take advantage of it. Even rom manager ->CWM or every other custom recovery is unavailable for us. No custom roms, no aftermarket development at all for now. Hopefully it'll come soon.

The only apps I use now are: Titanium backup and Root explorer.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mrsaccess:
Hm, you can also use adfree to get rid of ads. ;)

Ah, we need a forum to talk about our phone.

I want to port LG 2X/Black/3D Notifications for our phone but there are some problems.

First of all, our touch keys' leds aren't independent, they are both on or both off. So there won't be many customization options.

Secondly, although I found how to turn them on or off through the command line, they can be only controlled while the screen is on. That is pointless since I want them to turn on when the screen is off.

Anyway, if anyone want to play, connect with adb and while the screen is on, run:

# to turn touchkeys' led on
echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/leds/button-backlight/brightness
# to turn off
echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/leds/button-backlight/brightness

i have interjection when phone start, how to remove ?

http://www.ebay.pl/itm/UNBrick-Sams...UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL&hash=item27bf6e9bb3

its no work, start only download mode
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
Everybody has it! It's not a problem. IT shows up because you flashed insecure kernel. It's just an information about it. It will disappear if you flash secure kernel....which we don't have it by now. So start to like it, and wait for further development :)

YOUR PHONE IS NOT BRICKED!
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mrsaccess:
Since now we have root and Samsung has released the kernel source code, everything should be smooth for development.

I think the main problem is that few people have the device and most developers already settled for SGS2. :(

Yesterday I dumped the recovery partition and extracted the recovery files, but I don't know how to make a custom recovery.

Also I compiled successfully the kernel but I don't dare to flash it on my phone. I wish I knew better C and hardware stuff in order to add at least some overclocking capabilities.

Yes, but it's in Chinese when you flash, so you must know how to change language "blindly" :)

And to report something, this one has call recorder enabled and home screens have "unlimited" scroll (when you reach last screen it loops to first just like in apps screen).
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
Thank you. Rom is noticeably faster, everything goes smoother....but there's no way to add a google account there which means no market, no gmail, no maps, no tube. Screw that ****! too much headache. I'll wait for update.

BTW. The FW XWKG8 I sent to few of you guys didn't work for me today. Sorry, I shouldn't have sent it before checking it
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] rolfro65:
seems like there have been quite some action, lately :P

I've been away for about one week.....

Seems to me theres a few different versions of the i9103......

since i don't "****" i think i'll wait until i'm certain it will be ok to flash.....

hopefully it won't take too much time.....

Battery-time is to low and the phone can be sluggish @ times.....

Improved battery-time by un-installing some **** with titanium....

I tried the "Galaxy S2 sim-unlock" app from market but it couldn't find the code..

Other thing i would like to do is to remove the "horrid" "3"(three) boot up-screen...

So 4 now there's just a few app's i use that requires root....

Is there some one "fiddling" with the European Firm Ware?????

Thank's again 4 sending the "root" package, Guy's.....

I know what to do about us not having a section od our own....

Do what those "Skyrocket" people did......

Spam the "forum request" thread like crazy and we'll sure get it.......

(Just to clarify, now..... That was sarcasm..... BIG Time!)

Have you guys been there and and voted, yet?

If not, go there... Don't spam the thread but be sure to ad your vote....

while there, take a look how those guy's behaved... Most Hilarius part starts about page 100....

Funny thing is.... They got a section where the could discuss there beloved phone..

Just like we like to have ;)

But we are @ a strong second place, guy's....

Since we have root but almost no use of it i thought we could share what we could do with our phones that we couldn't do before...

I know.... Most will say "Titanium Backup" but there cold be things we've overlooked....

I tried to unlock my phone with the app, Galaxy S2 sim unlock with faliure as result.... but i think the app could still be usefull with a little "tampering"....

I'm no software-guy, i'm the hardware-guy but i guess there are others who knows what to do :p

So maybe there are some of you who tried something and succeeded???

If you did, please let us know.....

Since we don't have a section for our phone, let's do it in this thread....

Be patient, guy's and take care ;)

I use the 2.3.6 version for more than a week.

1) flash the 2.3.6

2) change language to English

3) after get root uninstall all Chinese apps

4) install clockworkMod (xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19469632&postcount=20)

5) install Google app from cyanogen in clockworkMod recovery (wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version/Google_Apps)

Sjukt bra jobbat mannen :) / Well done, that's really great news!
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] jason11:
informs here after you done. If everything OK. information May be useful for others.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
I can confirm it WORKS :)! Download google-apps and copy it to sd card, before installation.

A. via odin

1)Install 2.3.6

2)Flash rooted kernel

3)flash cwm

B. via CWM

4) do factory reset

5) flash gapps

6)Reboot

C.

7) Follow the installation

8) Configure OS the way you want and (optional)download Titanium backup

9) (optional) remove chinese apps with TB.

Unfortunately I think I deleted little bit too many apps, and maybe that's why I noticed some problem with gps-lock. It took ages before it locked...honestly I haven't managed to lock any satellite at all. So I just made a nandroid backup and restored my old 2.3.4.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] jason11:
i didn't noticed that before. I must find a way fix the GPS.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
BTW. It looks like serious reinforcements from China has arrived :) There has never been that many votes in a row in favor for our device! Finally :)

Thank you for all your votes guys!!!
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] jason11:
GPS works now without internet. 'FasterFix' has fixed. Before, the Server was set to north america and i change to Europa and works fine.

Ya i show that more than 20 votes only today.

(Such a powerful device still doesn't have own forum.)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
According to mu calculation:

we've gained 36 new votes, compared to 20 in favor of Galaxy W -> which gives us 142 total votes against 139 that belongs to SGW and that means we're taking the lead :)

It's good but it means nothing, if there are no developers interested in our device :(
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] jason11:
There must be some developer. If we have own forum more developers will come.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
Hopefully

Another "issue"

According to product description we should have 8 gb of internal memory and 1 gb of ram.

Every single task manager shows only: 3,75 gb of internal sd, and 724 mb ram. Has anybody of you also noticed that?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] jason11:
it is true. But, i thought it reserved for system application.

If i clear ram it will show at least 214 - 270 Mb used from 724MB.

And it has storage ca 2GB Rom and 3,75 gb of internal SD.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
Yeah I know but still. I noticed the same, but why it is "of total 724". That would clearly indicate 724 and not 1024 mb.

And 8 mb of internal storage indicates this built sd-card for user data and media files, and not the whole device internal memory that combines everything that has to do with term "memory" (phone+card) that cannot be removed physically. I think it's still very misleading information.

I mailed samsung.se for explanations ;)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] jason11:
What about SII they must also have the 1 GB RAM. Share your answer if you get one.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mrsaccess:
The memory issue goes for all Android devices I got my hands on. Part of the RAM is reserved for the firmware, for the GPU etc.

The LG 2X for example, which has 512MB of RAM, shows as available only the 384MB of them. 128 of the missing MBs were dedicated for the GPU and there was a kernel with a hack to assign only 64MB to the GPU, so the device had 448MB available RAM but some games crashed because of this.

As for the dedicated subforum, sorry but I don't see how a bunch of people who registered yesterday only to vote for our device can push towards a new forum.

Imho, if you want a dedicated subforum, create content for our phone.

For example ardatdat's overclocked kernel is an excellent push toward a dedicated forum. We need more of those instead of votes. ;)

---------- Post added at 12:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:32 AM ----------

One last thing, our device indeed has 8GB of internal memory. The 4GB though are reserved for the system partitions. Anyone can verify this through a shell.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
Thank you mrsaccess for full explanation. You are a wonderful human being :) I was starting to worry that I received a ****ty, reduced model. Now I'm calm :)

Unfortunately you're right about our subforum, people with one post on their account cannot push forward anything. But on the other hand, I read on chinese forum (google translate :) about development of miui-rom for our device which sounds really good. And I'm almost sure that the army of voters that supported us yesterday comes from China. Remember that you rooted your i9103 with chinese kernel :) They cannot be underestimated. I believe they can surprise us.

Ardatdat's oc kernel is masterpiece. Whole weekend I haven't been doing anything but testing every possible benchmark :P

m.kochan10 I am sure that the Chinese developers are very capable. But xda is a forum and if there aren't many people who really want to discuss about a device, there won't be a subforum I guess. Chinese developers have their own forums as you have discovered. ;)

To be honest I feel that our device is more than capable and competes Galaxy SII in both raw power and screen quality. It just hasn't got much advertising from Samsung and thus it has very low sales. This is the reason for the lack of community support.

Yes, it is like when you buy a computer and a portion of the hard drive's free space is occupied by Windows. Regardless if your new computer has a 500GB drive or a 1TB one, Windows will need about the same space. ;)

Has anybody of you tried to reset binary counter (in Download mod) with USB jig? It doesn't seem to work.

1)It should instantly boot into DM after plugging jig - Well...it happens only after battery pull. Otherwise you have to plug the jig and press power.

2)It makes no difference. Binary counter still shows few custom flashings and yellow triangle shows up on boot as usual.

Guys from SGS2 say that it doesn't work with android 2.3.5. I wonder if it works with our device/stock 2.3.4? Maybe it's just my jig that is not willing to cooperate.

Solved! If anyone is interested pm me:)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] rolfro65:

I dont think we're getting the forum until some developers appear and I dont see that coming at all.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] rolfro65:
Seems like we have some guy's trying things out here in this thread....

Maybe not developing but pretty damn close, don't ya think????

Speaking of that, i tried the "boosted", rooted kernel mentioned earlier in the thread.

Page 13 or 14 i think... That kernel is a gem, guy's.

My "quad" score now is close to 4K and still no FC's.....

I'm now looking for the next step to a custom "brew" as well....

Keep the spirit up, guy's ;)

EDIT : This is the kernel i'm running....

EDIT 2 : Checked in on the "req a forum", thread and counted about 25 i9103 requests since last update witch was +264...

That makes 289..... Don't know when we can get "ICS " but as the other forum say's we can have "ICS" pretty soon....

I'm checking that thread out closely now for an update in the matter.... Reporting updates here, of course ;)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] Google86:
We have a lot of votes yeah, but mods consider more things like having a big community for the device and thats the problem. we need people that build kernels and cook roms most of people are focused on S2 and Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] Google86:
They added lenovo thinkpad with LESS votes than I9103.... Theres nothing we can do
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
Indeed. Only one user (ardatdat) that makes some real progress is way too little to convince admins to give us own section.

We have bad luck due to ICS introduction. Since 4.0 is on the way none cares about cooking new gingerbread rom special for us. Right now Samsung doesn't give **** about other parts of the world than Asia. (still no update for Europe...) Rom cookers and devs prefer SGS2 and are generally more interested in ICS (well no wonder.)

To sum up:

1) our device resembles his older and stronger brother so much that...people most often choose sgs2 since the price difference isn't huge.

2) OS - uppdate / shift to ICS makes development even slower.

3) Lack of proper promotion (SGR still doesn't exist on swedish website !!!).

4) Increasingly bigger competition on mobile market.

It was really bad time for entering the market. I'm certain that long awaited breakthrough will come within few months (after ICS's release). The older devices will not fulfill requirements, and our sgr's popularity and development will boost for sure!
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] Google86:
I agree with all things you said;

Most important thing is the part when you talked about asia, samsung is releasing fw only in Asian regions, I'd say that de DO care about I9103 , its just they only care in ASIAN countries, maybe there they sold in high numbers this device I dont know... But they updated up to 2.3.6 ( same than S2) so If we ever see ICS would be in first place in Asia for sure... ( IMO)

I think that is that the KEY would be sell much more R's so by chance some advanced developer can help us with ports,kernel and roms.

Finally I strongly HOPE that you are right and within some months R becomes more popular and gets a stronger community.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
SGR seems to be very popular in Asia. It's properly advertised on Hong kong's, taiwanese, chinese websites. (I cannot understand why only few european countries have it officially.) Look how many votes we've got for last 3 weeks. We almost tripled the total score and look at usernames. I'll bet 90% of them are chinese users.

I think (well "I believe" is the right word :) ) those devices that are supposed get ICS will develop faster after release, and SGR is allegedly among them.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mrsaccess:
Well, since it is so popular in Asia, I guess it may get at least the MIUI ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
